I recently started packaging ntfs_3g for openSUSE.

Is it desired to include the experimental ntfs_recover?

What about the "quarantined" programs:

ntfsck
ntfsdump_logfile
ntfsfallocate
ntfsmftallocate
ntfsmove

If all the above are experimental, should I go ahead and create a
"ntfs-3g_ntfsprogs-experimental" sub-package?

Thanks
Greg
