Description of problem:

ntfsprogs fails its tests on ppc:

I'm setting excludearch here, as I doubt there is a lot of interest in ntfs on ppc.
Comment 1 Tom "spot" Callaway 2007-12-01 03:11:28 UTC 
Note that this is only applicable to 2.0.0 in rawhide.
Comment 2 David Woodhouse 2008-01-31 06:45:13 UTC 
Is the problem reported upstream?
Comment 3 Tom "spot" Callaway 2008-01-31 16:31:00 UTC 
Upstream has no formal bug tracking mechanism, so I've posted it to their "bug
forum":

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 04:04:14 UTC 
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.
More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 5 Bug Zapper 2009-06-09 23:14:50 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 6 Phil Knirsch 2012-01-13 19:23:51 UTC 
Closing bug due to inactivity and ntfsprogs is marked as dead by now.

Thanks & regards, Phil
