The libblkid.so.1 and libuuid.so.1 have something to do with the way 
e2fsprogs is configured.  In one configuration they are separate 
libraries and in the other they are part of the binary.  I think the 
option that controls this is --enable-dynamic-e2fsck, but I'm not sure. 
  Anyway, check ./configure --help to see if it says which is which. 
You might shrink the total size by not using separate libraries.
