A hint for users who want to upgrade feisty to gutsy and avoid the problems with the buggy ncpfs from gutsy:
It was already posted that using ncpfs 2.2.6-3 (from feisty) solves this problem. Before upgrading feisty to gutsy, I created the file /etc/apt/preferences with the following contents: Package: ncpfs Pin: version 2.2.6-3* Pin-Priority: 1000 Thus, ncpfs 2.2.6-3 survived the upgrade to gutsy. For new installations, create the file above before installing ncpfs, then download ncpfs_2.2.6-3_i386.deb from an ubuntu repository and install with dpkg -i. When the feisty version of ncpfs will be fixed, just delete the ncpfs- related contents from /etc/apt/preferences and upgrade. -- ncpfs 2.2.6-4 breaks ncpmount https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140464 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
