Description Olivier Castan 2004-03-01 15:01:30 UTC 
Ebuilds should be upgrade to build ntfsprogs-1.8.5
Upgrade to 1.8.4 suggested due to memory leaks found with valgrind.
Moreover the current version of the lib support compressed file attributes.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:




I don't know if 2.6 headers patch is still required, but the only sed in 1.8.0
ebuild that should be kept concerns getgccver

Bumped in CVS, it should reach Portage within an hour. I've removed the old version since it had memory leaks. Thanks!
