Package: ntfs-3g Version: 1:2014.2.15AR.3-3 Severity: serious Justification: I said so
ntfs-3g ships shared objects in a non-private location and these are used by other packages. ntfs-3g does not have a proper shared library package. Currently ntfs-3g advertises its ABI through a virtual package. This makes it difficult to detect breakage in other packages when that ABI changes. Upstream appears to want to bump ABI regularly. ntfs-3g should provide a proper shared library package conforming to policy ยง8.1. It would be helpful if the maintainer worked with depending packages to ensure a smooth transition. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages ntfs-3g depends on: ii fuse 2.9.3-15+deb8u1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u1 ii libgcrypt20 1.6.3-2 ii libgnutls-deb0-28 3.3.8-6+deb8u3 ii libgpg-error0 1.17-3 ii multiarch-support 2.19-18+deb8u1 ntfs-3g recommends no packages. ntfs-3g suggests no packages. -- debconf information excluded
