Bug 99770 – version bump for ntfsprogs with feature additions

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2005-07-21 03:24:48 UTC]

A couple of newer versions than the latest one in portage have been released;
ntfsprogs 1.11.1 released   (2005-07-20)
    A quick followup to 1.11.0, this release fixes several bugs in ntfsmount.
You only need to upgrade if you intend to use ntfsmount.

http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/

I made a new ebuild with added support for debug and fuse USE flags.

DESCRIPTION
       ntfsmount is a FUSE module that rely on libntfs.  You need FUSE to
compile it, xattr
       is also highly recommended.


       NTFS FUSE features:

              * Full read/only access to normal, sparse and compressed files.

              * Can overwrite and change size of normal and sparse files.

              * Can list/read/write/add/remove named data streams.

So this seems to be a fuse implementation of the in kernel driver.

Your ChangeLog is in ISO-8859. It breaks my last name on for example
packages.gentoo.org and is against GLEP-31.
