[Bug 1728354] Re: ntfs: unsupported reparse point

[Winfried PLappert]

Hello Jean-Pierre, 
installing the plugin from http://jp-andre.pagesperso-orange.fr/advanced-ntfs-3g.html#download and installing it at the correct place did the trick! Thank you. You might consider this solution for general availability, since more and more people will have to face WIndows-10, if they want to face it at all. You may close this bug report.

Title:
  ntfs: unsupported reparse point

Status in ntfs-3g package in Ubuntu:
  New

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.
