Dear Jean-Pierre André ,
It is very much possible that you are right, as I saw in
changelog.Debian.gz the following -
┌─[shirish@debian] - [/usr/share/doc/ntfs-3g] - [10005]
└─[$] zless changelog.Debian.gz
ntfs-3g (1:2016.2.22AR.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* Start the transition with upload to Sid.
-- Laszlo Boszormenyi (GCS) <g...@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jun 2017 19:12:30 +0000
ntfs-3g (1:2016.2.22AR.2-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Library transition from libntfs-3g871 to libntfs-3g872 .
* Remove 0002-kFreeBSD_ELIBBAD patch as included upstream.
-- Laszlo Boszormenyi (GCS) <g...@debian.org> Sat, 26 Nov 2016 18:16:45 +0000
Although changelog.gz doesn't mention any of this -
[1]NTFS-3G
* [2]Tuxera Home
* [3]NTFS-3G Home
+ [4]Questions & Answers
+ [5]Problem Submission
+ [6]Forum
+ [7]Mailing Lists
+ [8]Release History
* [9]Advanced Features
* [10]Security
* [11]Using a Native ACL
* [12]User Mapping
* [13]POSIX ACLs
* [14]Mount Options
* [15]Limitations
* [16]Junctions & Symlinks
* [17]Directory Junctions
* [18]Volume Junctions
* [19]Symbolic Links
* [20]Extended Attributes
* [21]Data Compression
* [22]User Mapping Tool
* [23]Security Data Auditing
* [24]OpenIndiana
Changelog for the Advanced Versions
Experimental versions are PURPLE
Beta test versions are RED
Release candidates are BLUE
Release versions are GREEN
The advanced versions are identified from the standard version they are
derived from. The changes which were made in the original stable
version are not repeated here (unless they were first made in an
advanced version).
Items prefixed by a hollow bullet mainly impact builds with Posix ACL
activated.
Version 2014.2.15AR.1 (Apr 7, 2014)
So the changelog.gz or either changelog.Debian.gz doesn't make mention
any of the new features :(
Look forward to know more.
