[Linux-NTFS-Announce] ntfsprogs 1.12.1 released

[Anton A. <ai...@ca...>]

This is a quick followup to 1.12.0 which fixes the location of mkfs.ntfs
and mount.ntfs-fuse to be in /sbin.

You can download rpms and source code of the 1.12.1 release:

        http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

Or get the changes from Sourceforge CVS, for details see:

        http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=13956

ChangeLog since 1.12.0 release:

- Fix hardcoded location for uninstalling mount.ntfs-fuse hardlink to
  match the relocatable location for installing it.  (Anton, Szaka)
- Move mount.ntfs-fuse and mkfs.ntfs to be symlinks instead of
  hardlinks and move both to /sbin rather than prefix/sbin.  Note we
  still obey $destdir so building packages works as well as installing
  into alternate chroot / other system still works.  (Anton)
- ntfscmp: fix some corner cases and all memory leaks; handle corrupt
  NTFS more gracefully.  (Szaka)
- If the system does not have realpath(), supply our own dummy version
  which just copies the string without any kind of checking or
  expansion.  (Anton)

Best regards,

        Anton
