A hint for users who want to upgrade feisty to gutsy and avoid the
problems with the buggy ncpfs from gutsy:

It was already posted that using ncpfs 2.2.6-3 (from feisty) solves this
problem. Before upgrading feisty to gutsy, I created the file
/etc/apt/preferences with the following contents:

Package: ncpfs
Pin: version 2.2.6-3*
Pin-Priority: 1000

Thus, ncpfs 2.2.6-3 survived the upgrade to gutsy.

For new installations, create the file above before installing ncpfs,
then download ncpfs_2.2.6-3_i386.deb from an ubuntu repository and
install with dpkg -i.

When the feisty version of ncpfs will be fixed, just delete the ncpfs-
related contents from /etc/apt/preferences and upgrade.
