Package: exfat-utils
Version: 1.2.4-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I was trying to repair an exfat volume (USB stick) that had not
been cleanly unmounted.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I ran `fsck /dev/sdXn`
* What was the outcome of this action?
It apparently didn't complete but rather output the following:
ERROR: illegal UTF-16 sequence.
BUG: failed to convert name to UTF-8.
In case it's helpful, here's a full transcript of running this
through gdb:
