Created attachment 605323
Proposed patch (created by upstream)

Hi,

While investigating an issue with baobab (gnome disk usage tool, bug
811399) I found out that ntfs-3g returns an invalid result when a
junction point (symbolic link) is detected. Whenever a junction point is
detected, the readdir syscall thinks that the file in question is a
directory while it actually is a symbolic link.

I filed this issue upstream along with a testcase and they provided a
fix for this issue. I tested this patch on my Fedora 17 x86_64
environment and it indeed does resolve the baobab issue.

Could you please apply this patch in the ntfs-3g package for now?

Erik, the patch you attached is seriously malformed (how did you manage
that?), but I found the correct patch from the tuxera link. Update is
coming, thanks.

I don't know what went wrong, but when I perform 'wget
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=605323' it returns a
proper patch here. Anyway, you managed to get the patch from upstream so
everything is good now.

Thanks for the quick update!
