Package: gparted
Version: 0.4.6-2
Severity: wishlist

When I run gparted on a system without ntfsprogs installed, I get the
warning sign on NTFS partitions because gparted can't work on NTFS
partitions without ntfsprogs. That's all fair, but the explanation for the
warning sign is

"Unable to read the contents of this file system! Because of this some
operations may be unavailable."

while it would be much more informative if it read

"ntfsresize --info failed for this file system. Check that ntfsprogs is
installed"

or something like that. I know that there is a "Suggests: ntfsprogs" on
gparted in Debian, but I still think this error message should be improved.
