Summary: Request for kernel-module-ntfs inclusion in fedora extras https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=179276 snecklifter@xxxxxxxxx changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|CLOSED |REOPENED Resolution|WONTFIX | ------- Additional Comments From snecklifter@xxxxxxxxx 2006-02-02 07:07 EST ------- In reply to Comment #1 I was hoping that instead of an outright "no this wont work" people would be willing to re-visit the possibility of the inclusion of ntfs support. Also remember mono was also listed under forbidden items until recently so I do not consider it a be all and end all. I am of course aware of third party repos such as livna and the excellent job they do etc etc. however my hope is that by NOT shipping with core and instead using a kernel module in extras we could compromise a little. Remember, the code is not a wrapper for some ntfs driver, it is GPL'd and written and available due to the damn hard work of some fine developers. If we are to reject inclusion of NTFS support in the kernel then by dint we should also be removing FAT support (see recently upheld patents on this baby) and SAMBA should also give us cause for concern as it was developed using similar methods.
