[Bug 999540] Re: Can't resize NTFS partitions

[Curtis Gedak]

LAZA, the problem stems from a change in error handling in ntfsresize
v2011.4.12AR.4 (libntfs-3g).

If you use an older version of ntfsresize (e.g., 2.0.0), or a newer
version, such as ntfsresize v2012.1.15AR.1, then the problem goes away.

If you use GParted 0.9.1 or higher then you can even use ntfsresize
v2011.4.12AR.4 (libntfs-3g).

Title:
  Can't resize NTFS partitions

Status in Gnome Partition Editor:
  Fix Released
Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I had to resize (scale down) my third partition (sda4) with is mounted on /pub and formated with NTFS.
  The 10 GB i gave temporarily onto SWAP, which is sda2

  While resizing, i got a lot of error messages but the operation finished and after checking the table all seems okay and i can mount the resized partion and the SWAP without problems.
  I added the log from gparted to show you all the error messages and what exactly gone wrong (or not?).
