Package: ddrutility Version: 2.8-1.1 Severity: normal
Dear maintainer,I suppose this issue should be better reported upstream, but I can't find where to report it and the homepage states that the project is "no longer actively supported".
`ddru_findbad` script uses `ntfscluster` command to detect the NTFS cluster size. Unfortunately, `ntfscluster` fails if the NTFS partition is scheduled for check (because it was not properly unmounted, which I suppose is common if the drive has issues), so ddru_findbad also fails with the following error:
Error! ntfscluster did not report a cluster size. This could be caused by the disk being mounted. Try unmounting the disk.However, I noticed that with the same problematic partition, using `--force` option of ntfscluster works properly. As a quick and dirty fix I wrote directly my NTFS cluster size in `/usr/bin/ddru_findbad`. Maybe a proper "fix" would be to replace the following line:
CLUSTERSIZE=$(ntfscluster $PARTITION 2>/dev/null | grep -a "bytes per cluster" | awk ' { print $5 } ')
By:CLUSTERSIZE=$(ntfscluster --force $PARTITION 2>/dev/null | grep -a "bytes per cluster" | awk ' { print $5 } ')
Thanks for you time and work, Yvan
