* New upstream release (closes: #332930):
  - Fixed lots of memory leaks in the tools.
  - ntfsmount now uses the new API, and it has several fixes.
  - Support journals which have been modified by chkdsk.
  - New API for creating hard links, index handling, high-level creation and
    deletion of files and directories.
  - New utility ntfscmp (make extra) which compares two NTFS volumes and
    tell the differences. It's used for development, debugging, testing, etc.
  - Added robustness to several tools.
  - ntfsclone: fix saving by sectors during --rescue.
  - ntfsmount: Add 'locale' option and change interface to 'ntfsmount device
    mount_point'.
  - Fixed problem with kernel 2.4 and mkntfs.
  - Change ALL utilities to display the libntfs version they are running on.
    This should make debugging easier in the case that people are running
    mismatched utilities/library.
* This new release fixes problems with libfuse 2.4.0 (closes: #336357).
* Fixed a lot of typos in the manpages, kindly submitted by A Costa. Thanks!
  (closes: #336143, #336144, #336145, #336147, #336148).
* Fixed a couple of typos by me.
* debian/control: The SONAME of libntfs was bumped. Created new package
  (libntfs8) and removed the old one.
* debian/copyright: Updated the FSF postal address.
* Added debian/ntfsprogs.links in order to ship mkfs.ntfs and
  mount.ntfs-fuse.

* debian/control:
  - The conflict with ntfstools should be versioned. Thanks, Joerg (closes:
    #278303).
  - Dropped from Build-Depends field completely gcc, as the version shipped
    with sarge will be >= 3:3.2.3.

* New upstream release.
* Upstream now includes the fixes for the powerpc build, so cleaned a bit
  the diff.
* Now mkntfs has two new options: -I, which disables content indexing on the
  volume and -C, which enables compression on the volume.
