Upgraded to Debian Jessie from Wheezy, can't mount NTFS disks anymore

Question

After upgrading from Debian Wheezy to Debian Jessie, I can't mount my NTFS partitions anymore.

One error message which I get is:

Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command.

Apparently the ntfs-3g from Jessie has a bug. Installing the package from the unstable Sid version solves the problem for me.

Dowload package from :

https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/ntfs-3g/download

and install as root with :

sudo dpkg -i ntfs-3g_2015.3.14AR.1-1_amd64.deb
