[UVFe] please merge ntfs-3g (1:1.913-1) from Debian unstable (main)

This is the debdiff between current Debian and your merge. However, for the purpose of FF exception we need the debdiff between current gutsy and your version. Can you please attach that?

ah, sorry about that. Here's the complete debdiff.

Thanks. Looks reasonable to me. SONAME bump will require NEWing, but is ok since there are no reverse dependencies except ntfs-3g itself.

the changelog entry in my debdiff seems to refer to old soname.
here's the corrected one.

Thanks for the fixup.

Colin: as you seem to have uploaded all the last Ubuntu versions of ntfs-3g, could you also take a look into this one?

ntfs-3g (1:1.913-2ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

  [ Matti Lindell, Colin Watson ]
  * Resynchronise with Debian (LP: #145852), mainly to fix major performance
    problems and help out the installer by being able to mount filesystems
    even when they need to be checked the next time Windows boots. Remaining
    changes:
    + Add udeb shlibs entries for libntfs-3g12-udeb.
    + Bump debhelper build-dependency to 5.0.22 for dh_makeshlibs --add-udeb.
    + Create libntfs3g12-udeb and ntfs-3g-udeb.
    + Copy ntfs-3g into the initramfs. If ntfs-3g is used to mount the root
      filesystem (either directly or via a loopback mount), load the fuse
      module beforehand, and save ntfs-3g's PID (indirectly) in
      /var/run/sendsigs.omit.

    + WriteSupportForNTFS
      - Move install location of ntfs-3g from /usr/bin to /bin
      - Move install location of library libntfs-3g.so.12.0.0 and
        its lib*.so.* symlink from /usr/lib to /lib
      - Fix up libntfs-3g-dev library symlink libntfs-3g.so in
        /usr/lib to point to new location of libntfs-3g.so.12.0.0
        in debian/rules
      - Add /sbin/mount.ntfs symlink to /bin/ntfs-3g
      - Add a symlink for the mount.ntfs manual page too.

ntfs-3g (1:1.913-2) unstable; urgency=HIGH

  * Security set to HIGH because it fixes a critical issue.
  * Do not set ntfs-3g binary setuid with group fuse.
    This could allows local users with fuse group membership to read from and
    write to arbitrary block devices, possibly involving a file descriptor
    leak. (CVE-2007-5159) (Closes: #445315).
  * Update README.Debian and long description (Closes: #443418).

ntfs-3g (1:1.913-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Bump library package name to match current soname.

ntfs-3g (1:1.826-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Bump library package name to match current soname.

ntfs-3g (1:1.810-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (Closes: #434128).
  * Bump libfuse-dev build depends to >= 2.7 (Needed to really fix #434128).
  * Bump library package name to match current soname.

ntfs-3g (1:1.710-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update long description, ntfs-3g works fine on any architecture (Closes: #436435).
  * ntfs-3g binary is now 4754, according to debian policy (Closes: #436658).
