[Bug 1728354] Re: ntfs: unsupported reparse point

[John Markh]

I haven't touched ntfs-3g, only copied/installed the plugin from
onedrive.zip to the directory identified by strings $(which ntfs-3g) |
grep ntfs-plugin.

I have created a file using LibreOffice and saved it in a folder synced
by OneDrive (see the output of ntfsinfo in 1 - file created by
LibreOffice).

Rebooted and switched to Windows 10. Allowed the file to sync - no
problem. Opened the file in Word 2016 and saved as with a different
name.

Rebooted back into Ubuntu and run ntfsinfo on the original file (now
synced by OneDrive) and the file created by Word. Both files can be
opened, updated and deleted within Ubuntu without problems (see the
output of ntfsinfo in 2 - file created by LibreOffice - Synced and 3 -
file updated by Word2016).

Title:
  ntfs: unsupported reparse point

Status in ntfs-3g package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I recently updated my Windows-10 to the 1709 edition. Scanning the
  file system with Ubuntu, I get "unsupported reparse point" errors.
  Searching the web indicates that ntfs cannot handle certain files.

  I am running Ubutu-Mate 17.10:

  uname -r: 4.13.0-16-generic

  lsb_release -rcid:
  Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
  Description:	Ubuntu 17.10
  Release:	17.10
  Codename:	artful

  I include a file which runs ntfsinfo on a file where I get the "unsupported reparse point" message:
  sudo ntfsinfo -F /Windows/hh.exe /dev/sda1 >unsupported_reparse_point.txt

  while mounted: I issue ls -l <mount_point>/Windows/hh.exe 
  ls -l Windows/hh.exe 
  lrwxrwxrwx 2 .. .. 25 Sep 29 14:41 Windows/hh.exe -> unsupported reparse point

  I expect to see either a resolved link or a length for the file in
  question.
