[Bug 310772] [NEW] NTFS-Volume not writable after copy operation (bug in ntfs-3g before 1.5012)

[OliFre]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ntfs-3g

Source-package: ntfs-3g
Version: 1:1.2506-1ubuntu2
Ubuntu-Version: 8.10 (Intrepid)

What I did: 
Copying some 100 files to an NTFS-Partition. Suddenly, copying stopped with the error: "Operation not supported" and showed that error for all files ever after. 
Result: I lost write-access to the NTFS-Partition. 
Rebooting, remounting as root and ntfsfix did NOT solve the problem. 

This error is described here: 
http://www.ntfs-3g.org/support.html#filecreate
and was indeed solved by downloading the sources of the newest (stable!) ntfs-3g and compiling them. 
Write access was now back after a simple remount. 
So I request an update of the ntfs-3g-package in intrepid / hardy. 

Please DO NOT report this as a duplicate of Bug #199161, which is
another bug just throwing similar error-messages. This is indeed NOT
fixed in the current version of NTFS-3G included in Ubuntu Intrepid.
