-Changes between versions 0.4b15 and 0.4b16 (released ?????????????)
-===================================================================
+Changes between versions 0.4b17 and 0.4b18 (released ??????????????)
+====================================================================
+
+1. Fixed a potential buffer overflow in restore. Thanks
+ to Stan Bubrouski <satan@fastdial.net> for reporting
+ the bug.
+
+2. Fixed a readline-related bug which prevented
+ 'cat DUMPFILE | restore -i -f -' from working. Thanks
+ to Charles Karney <karney@users.sourceforge.net>
+ for the bug report.
+
+3. Changed a few "panic" into "exit", causing restore to
+ be more stable against some attacks (like the last one
+ reported on Bugtraq, although the last version of restore
+ was not vulnerable - just dumped core). Thanks to
+ Andreas Hasenack <andreas@conectiva.com.br> for reporting
+ the bugs to me.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b16 and 0.4b17 (released June 1st, 2000)
+====================================================================
+
+1. The -F script is called now *only* at the end of a tape,
+ not at the end of the dump. Thanks to Christian Haul
+ <haul@informatik.tu-darmstadt.de> for the bug report.
+
+ Normally, the device name and the current volume number
+ are passed on the command line of the script. However,
+ if you want the old style script (with no arguments
+ passed on the command line), you can enable it in
+ configure with the --enable-oldstylefscript.
+
+2. Use posix signal handling to preserve dump functionality
+ with libc5. Thanks to Jeff Johnson <jbj@redhat.com> for
+ the patch.
+
+3. Made the exit code of restore in case of a 'C'ompare
+ command reflect the result of the compare. An exit status
+ of 0 means the dump archive is correct, 1 means tape errors,
+ 2 means that some files were modified. Thanks to Kenneth Porter
+ <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion.
+
+4. Made (finally) quotes work in interactive restore.
+
+5. Small fixes in order to allow dump to compile with a
+ really old e2fsprogs version. Thanks to Ian Zimmerman
+ <itz@speakeasy.org> for the bug report.
+
+6. Add GNU readline capabilities to interactive restore.
+ Use configure's --enable-readline flag to enable this feature.
+ Thanks to Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for the
+ suggestion.
+
+7. Do the compare on the fly in restore 'C' mode (this will
+ allow not to exhaust the available /tmp space when
+ ccmparing large files). Thanks to Kenneth Porter
+ <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b15 and 0.4b16 (released March 11, 2000)
+====================================================================
1. Fixed some several duplicate 'DUMP: DUMP:' in the
output of dump.
Thanks to Dejan Muhamedagic <dejan@quant-x.com> for the
patch.
+5. Added the device name and the current volume number
+ as arguments to the end of tape script (dump -F option).
+
+6. Made the multi-volume dump work again (after having
+ broken it in 0.4b15).
