[Bug 250705] Re: Update ntfs-3g via backports to stable version in hardy

[Hew McLachlan]

Thanks for your report. The latest version in Ubuntu is now ntfs-3g
1:1.2506-1ubuntu2. I have turned this into a proper hardy-backports
request, as described at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports.

** Also affects: hardy-backports
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: ntfs-3g (Baltix)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Changed in: ntfs-3g (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Summary changed:

- Update ntfs-3g via backports to stable version in hardy
+ Please backport ntfs-3g

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: ntfs-3g
- 
- Could you please update ntfs-3g to the stable driver of the homepage?
- If you read http://www.ntfs-3g.org/releases.html:
- The new "features" are minimal:
- 
- STABLE Version 1.2310 (March 10, 2008)
-   # New: Support building the driver in a separate directory.
-   # New: Added --enable-mount-helper configure option which installs /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g, so mount via mount(8) and /etc/fstab can work on Linux. The default is enabled on Linux and disabled on all other operating systems. 
- STABLE Version 1.2310 (March 10, 2008)
-   # Change: The 'dev' and 'suid' mount options are the default from now on for root mounts, similarly as other file systems behave. These options are always denied for setuid-root and unprivileged mounts. 
- 
- All others are bug fixes.
+ Please backport ntfs-3g 1:1.2506-1ubuntu2 from Intrepid/Jaunty to Hardy.
