A follow-up on my last comment. Please note that Wine has a "bug-for-bug" policy when it comes to working with the windows API. See http://wiki.winehq.org/WineFeatures
In other words, if the actual implementation disagrees with the documentation, then the implementation wins. There is a lot of sense to this policy, as the end goal is full interoperability, or "Binary Compatibility" as mentioned on the page I have referenced. This should be the same with the NTFS-3G driver. If the NTFS documentation says full POSIX namespace support, but the NTFS implementation differs, the implementation should win. In our case, there are characters that are legal in the documentation, even if it is not Microsoft's documentation, but every known official implementation of NTFS does not allow full POSIX namespace support. For the sake of full interoperability, this bug should not be fixed in individual apps, but in the NTFS-3G code, just like similar issues are dealt with on a "bug-for-bug" basis in the Wine code. -- Rhythmbox shouldn't set illegal / special characters on filenames (i.e. "?"; question mark) when ripping to NTFS volumes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
