Package: ntfs-3g Version: 1:2014.2.15AR.2-1 I have a system which previously ran Debian Wheezy, I recentl changed the sources.list to point at jessie instead of wheezy and ran and update, upgrade & dist-upgrade.
This appeared to work fine, however in the last week (I have been regularly updating), mounting of the 2TB NTFS parition seems to have become unstable. It may have been related to the addition of a second NTFS drive via USB, but the problem persisted after this drive was removed. I would start the machine, log into KDE and from Dolphin could see the 2TB drive marked as mounted, if I clicked the Dolphin shortcut I would be presented with an empty directory. I was unable to navigate to the mounted point (in this case /mnt/Drives/sda1) as the last folder (sda1) did not exist. Opening a terminal window (bash) and using su to gain root access the last folder did appear to exist, however it seemed to be acting very strange, sda1 is the only folder within the Drives directory. Entering 'cd /mnt/Drives/' and pushing tab would generally complete to 'cd /mnt/Drives/sda1', but not always, sometimes the message "Input/Output Error" would appear in bash. When it did complete I found anouther error, when I double pressed tab I would expect it to show me the directories on the drive ~50% of the time it would, the other times it would repeat the mount point producing bash output like so 'cd /mnt/Drives/sda1 sda1' once this occurred a double tab press would simply result in adding more mount point names to the string e.g. 'cd /mnt/Drives/sda1 sda1 sda1'. Googling 'Input/Output Error', showed a issue with ntfs-3g version 1:2014, recommendation was to roll back to 1:2012, I added a Wheezy mirror to my sources list and downgraded the ntfs-3g package to 1:2012.1.15AR.5-2.1. After multiple power cycles, the drive appears to be mounting and functioning correctly. I've submitted this bug since the bug tracker didn't seem to show this issue against ntfs-3g, I've included my fstab and system for help. If you need logs please let me know which ones and I will happily uprade the package and produce them if you can tell me where to get them from.
