Comment 4 for bug 1728354

> configure complains that libntfs-3g is not new enough: libntfs-3g >= 2017.3.23,

So, the system-compression package has been upgraded beyond what you have installed, nevertheless ntfs-3g 1:2016.2.22AR.2-2 is able to run the plugins, though probably not the latest version.

Then, you have to download systcomp.zip from http://jp-andre.pagesperso-orange.fr/advanced-ntfs-3g.html#download and extract the (binary) plugin which matches the cpu you are using. For instance, for an x86_64 cpu :
unzip -x systcomp.zip systcomp/linux-64/ntfs-plugin-80000017.so

Now, (as root), you have to relocate the file ntfs-plugin-80000017.so to the proper ntfs plugin directory. A simple way to find this directory, is to run the command :
strings $(which ntfs-3g) | grep ntfs-plugin
This will return something like "/usr/lib64/ntfs-3g/ntfs-plugin-%08lx.so" which is the pattern to locate the plugin (in this case, the plugin must be renamed as "/usr/lib64/ntfs-3g/ntfs-plugin-80000017.so"). Your actual plugin directory may be different, and you may have to create the directory.

Note : the file systcomp.zip contains the source file, which you may want to compile yourself.
