Bug#693085: ntfs-3g: Endless loop on Application Data directory on Windows Vista file system

2012-11-13 Thread Jean-Pierre André

This appears to be the same as bug #685551, however, that bug is marked as
fixed in the version of ntfs-3g I am using, yet I am still experiencing this
bug.


Which bug ?

The loops in the Windows tree are a decision from Microsoft.

Please give an example of a problem this causes to you
and which does not happen when you make a similar symlink
loop on another file system

Bug#693085: ntfs-3g: Endless loop on Application Data directory on Windows Vista file system

2012-11-12 Thread Frederik Himpe
Package: ntfs-3g
Version: 1:2012.1.15AR.8-1
Severity: important

This appears to be the same as bug #685551, however, that bug is marked as
fixed in the version of ntfs-3g I am using, yet I am still experiencing this
bug.

Application Data is recursively contained withint itself. For example, I have
this directory:
/mnt/temp/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Application
Data/Application Data/Application Data/Application Data

The windows vista file system was mounted like this:
mount -o loop,uid=frederik,gid=frederik -t ntfs-3g
/mnt/storage/backup/machine1/sda3.img /mnt/temp
