+Changes between versions 0.4b9 and 0.4b10 (released ???????????????)
+====================================================================
+
+1. Make configure test if the system glob routines support
+ extended syntax (ALTDIRFUNC). If not, use the internal glob
+ routines instead of system ones. Thanks to Bernhard Sadlowski
+ <sadlowsk@Mathematik.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for reporting the bug
+ and helping me resolve this and other minor libc5 compiling
+ glitches.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b8 and 0.4b9 (released November 5, 1999)
+====================================================================
+
+1. Use lchown instead of chown, fixing a possible security problem
+ when restoring symlinks (a malicious user could use this
+ to deliberately corrupt the ownership of important system files).
+ Thanks to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for detecting
+ this and providing the patch.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b7 and 0.4b8 (released November 3, 1999)
+====================================================================
+
+1. Put dump sources under CVS, added Id tags in all files so
+ one can use 'ident' on binary files.
+
+2. Added the dump/restore version in the usage text so one can
+ easily verify the version he is using.
+
+3. Small patch from Nuno Oliveira <nuno@eq.uc.pt> which fixes
+ a va_start/va_end problem on linux-ppc (always call va_start
+ va_end in pairs each time we use a vararg function).
+
+4. Added again the DT_* constants because old libc does not
+ contain them :(. Thanks to Eric Maisonobe <virnet@nat.fr>
+ for submitting the bug report.
+
+5. Use ext2fs_llseek instead of llseek. With recent e2fsprogs
+ this should enable dumping big (huge) filesystems.
+
+6. Added the RSH environment variable in order to be able to
+ use a rsh replacement like ssh when doing remote backups (and
+ bypass the security limitations of rcmd). Now you can do remote
+ backups without being root (or making dump setuid root).
+
+7. Modified again the way dumpdates works. For incremental dumps,
+ we need to read dumpdates even if we are not using 'u' option.
+ Thanks to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for his ideas on how
+ this should work.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b6 and 0.4b7 (released October 8, 1999)
+===================================================================
+
+1. Removed the 'k' flag from the restore 'about' text if kerberos
+ was not compiled in.
+
+2. Prototyped (f)setflags from e2fsprogs and corrected the calls
+ to them (fsetflags takes a char*, setflags an open fd!).
+
+3. (f)setflags is called only if the flags aren't empty. If the
+ file is a special file, a warning is printed, because changing
+ flags implies opening the device. Normally, a special file
+ should not have any flag... (Debian bug #29775, patch provided
+ by Abhijit Dasgupta <abhijit@ans.net>).
+
+4. Made possible to dump a file system not mentioned in /etc/fstab.
+ (Debian bug #11904, patch provided by Eirik Fuller <eirik@netcom.com>).
+
+5. Changed the default behaviour to not create dumpdates
+ unless 'u' option is specified. Removed the old "debian-patch"
+ which provided the same thing. (Debian bug #38136, #33818).
+
+6. Removed all those dump*announce, since they were getting old...
+
+7. Added warning messages if dumpdates does not exist and
+ when an inferior level dump does not exist (except for a level 0
+ dump).
+
+8. Debugged the glob calls in interactive mode: restore used a
+ dirent struct which was different from the /usr/include/dirent.h
+ one (this used to work, is it a glibc2 change?), so none of the
+ compat glob (which used /usr/include/dirent.h) or the system glob
+ worked. Restore use now the system dirent (and the system
+ DT_* constants), which are compatible with BSD ones.
+
+9. Added a configure flag (--with-dumpdatespath) to specify
+ the location of dumpdates file. By default, it is
+ /etc/dumpdates.
+
+10. Added the "AUTHOR" and "AVAILABILITY" sections and
+ included the current date/version in man pages.
+
+11. Corrected the estimation of remaining time when
+ the operator doesn't change the tapes quickly enough. This
+ was an old bug, I thought I corrected it, and discovered
+ that in fact it was corrected in two different places, so
+ the results canceled each other...
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b5 and 0.4b6 (released October 1, 1999)
+===================================================================
1. Integrated multiple patches from RedHat, Debian and SuSE:
- workaround egcs bug (RedHat bugs #4281 and #2989).
- wire $(OPT) throughout Makefile's.
-2. Fix some compile warnings, prototype all functions.
+2. Upgrade the dump revision to 1, making possible to dump filesystems
+ made with e2fsprogs-1.15 or newer. Nothing seems to break...
+
+3. Fix some compile warnings, prototype all functions.
-3. Use glibc err/glob instead of internal compatibility
+4. Use glibc err/glob instead of internal compatibility
routines (only if available).
-Changes between versions 0.4b4 and 0.4b5
-========================================
+5. Fix a compile error on Linux 2.2.7 / libc5 (5.4.44) (patch provided
+ by Bernhard Sadlowski <sadlowsk@mathematik.uni-bielefeld.de>).
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b4 and 0.4b5 (released September 22, 1999)
+======================================================================
1. Integrated the changes from FreeBSD-3.1-RELEASE
(mostly bug fixes, buffer overruns, dump has now an "automatic
4. Corrected the long standing bug when dumping multiple tapes.
This works for me, needs further testing.
-Changes between versions 0.4b3 and 0.4b4
-========================================
+Changes between versions 0.4b3 and 0.4b4 (released January 17, 1997)
+====================================================================
1. Dump now runs correctly on kernels 2.1.x
