Dear Maintainer,

in order to access many files from my windows 10 partition, I needed to
install the plugin from
https://github.com/ebiggers/ntfs-3g-system-compression , and things seem
to work now. It would be nice if this could be part of the debian package.
Apparently it is currently restricted to reading, but since I mount the
filesystem read-only anyway, that's not a real limitation for me.

This downloadable currently does not work in Debian 10.  It creates
ntfs-plugin-80000017.so.  What's needed is ntfs-plugin-8000001b.so. Viz
from syslog:

Sep  4 22:22:04 basil ntfs-3g[25041]: Could not load plugin
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ntfs-3g/ntfs-plugin-8000001b.so: No such file
or directory

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ntfs-3g/ntfs-plugin-8000001b.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

I don't know a solution.

Please ignore this addendum/correction.  Omitting autoreconf -i did
*not* solve the problem.

The tag 8000001b is not about system compression, but
for what Microsoft calls IO_REPARSE_TAG_APPEXECLINK.
AFAIK it is a trigger to start (or install) some Windows
application.

It is not clear what should be expected when accessing
such file from Linux, so this is bound to remain unsupported
until someone suggests some useful action.
