Details
Description:
The mount option "streams_interface=xattr", along with a .NTFS-3G/XattrMapping file allows to copy files along with their NTFS attributes using standard tools (like rsync, tar and cp). The documentation of how that feature works is here: https://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/extended-attributes/ However, for that option to be available, is necessary to add "--enable-xattr-mappings" to the configure script. So my feature request is; to add the "--enable-xattr-mappings" flag to the call to "./configure" on the PKGBUILD. I have used the official PKGBUILD, added the flag and compiled it, and it seems to be working without problems. Additional info: * package version(s): The current version at this moment, 2017.3.23 Steps to reproduce: Just add --enable-xattr-mappings after line 38 on the PKGBUILD and build the package. Follow the instructions about extended-attributes here: https://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/extended-attributes/ |
