RFC: ntfs-3g/2014.2.15AR.2-1 upload
Hi Release Team,
I ask for comments and/or permission to upload ntfs-3g to unstable. I
know that KiBi lifted the udeb freeze but I'd like to be sure.
The package is available for review[1], the upstream changes[2] show
that it's a new stable patchlevel relese. The changes list also
included here:
- fixed readdir I/O error on very long file names in Solaris (Erik Larsson)
- fixed $Bitmap size in index in ntfsresize
- fixed inserting a new ACL after they have been wiped out by chkdsk
- returned success from ntfsprogs utilities with options --version and the like
- allowed group mapping of a few well-known SIDs
- ignored chmod/chown/setfacl when Windows inheritance is applied
- displayed the parent directory of selected files in usermap
- decoded the GENERIC_ALL flag in secaudit
- improved the conditions for double inheritance of an ACE
- improved the ownership definition when user mapping fails
- decoded more "well-known" and generic SIDs in secaudit
- recognized interactive users as any user
- fixed checking static groups against process owner
- fixed ignoring the umask mount option when permissions are used
- fixed getting inherited security ids from cache
- defined the configure option --enable-quarantined for non functional utilities
- included ntfsfallocate in the quarantined ntfsprogs
- showed Windows ownership in verbose situations of secaudit
- disabled the default user mapping when Windows inheritance is used
- fixed a wrong function header in usermap
- fixed processing umask when Posix ACLs are compiled in but not enabled
- fixed checking permissions when Posix ACLs are compiled in but not enabled
- added manuals for ntfsdecrypt, ntfswipe, ntfstruncate and ntfsfallocate
- upgraded fuse-lite to support simple ioctls
- implemented FITRIM (fstrim) ioctl (Richard W.M. Jones)
- reengineered the compression algorithm (Eric Biggers)
- disabled option remove_hiberfile on read-only mounts
- developped an option for faster ntfswipe (michael)
It would be nice to have it for Jessie. Thanks,
Laszlo/GCS
