Comment 6 for bug 349569

Hello devkitters,

In https://launchpad.net/bugs/349569 it was noted that devkit-disks
does not allow most of the ntfs-3g mount options. So far, ntfs-3g has
shipped a hal fdi as a workaround (attached) which allows those, but
obviously that doesn't work with dk-disks any more.

Is the intention that ./src/devkit-disks-device.c itself gets those
new options, hardcoded? It already expects ntfs-3g after all:

| /* this is assuming that ntfs-3g is used */
|
| static const char *ntfs_defaults[] = {"uid=",
| "gid=",
| "dmask=0077",
| NULL};
| static const char *ntfs_allow[] = {"umask=",
| "dmask=",
| "fmask=",
| NULL};
|

If it shouldn't be hardcoded, is there any plan to allow overrides?

Personally I think that ntfs-3g has been pretty much the only use case
here, so adding them to devkit-disks-device.c would be okay.

Thanks for comments,

Martin
