Bug Description
Binary package hint: fsarchiver
symbolic links are not saved properly on ntfs filesystems with fsarchiver-0.6.8 when ntfs-3g >= 2010.3.6 is used.
This is because the data returned by new ntfs-3g versions are in a different format and fsarchiver-0.6.8 was not aware of that.
This is a critical bug since links will be broken on the restored ntfs filesystem. This bug has been fixed upstream (fsarchiver-0.6.10)
There is a patch for fsarchiver-0.6.8 that should be applied on the package in ubuntu 10.04:
