Fixed a bug in dump which may have caused invalid deleted + directories to be dumped out if they were deleted after the + mapping pass. This could occure on active filesystem and lead + to heap corruption (causing dump malfunction in many possible ways). + Thanks to Jan Sanislo for finding this + bug and submitting the patch. + +2. Fixed the handling of the filesystem parameter in dump. A + '/mnt/disk' parameter caused the disk contents to be dumped, + but a '/mnt/disk/' parameter caused the mountpoint directory + to be dumped (generally an empty directory). + +3. Improved the output of dump in order to tell which directory + it is currently dumping (when dumping a subtree). + +4. Added the '-e' exclude inode option to dump. Thanks to + Isaac Chuang for contributing with the patch. + +5. Added a REPORTING-BUGS file in order to provide a guide + on how to correctly report a bug in dump/restore. + +6.

Thanks to Rainer Clasen for + tracking down the problem and proposing the solution. + +5. Fixed a bug in dump which prevented the creation of the + dumpdates file when doing a 0-level dump without already + having a dumpdates file. Thanks to Patrik Schindler + for reporting the bug. + +6. Changed the way dump 'S' flag reports the size estimate + from number of blocks into bytes (making it compatible + with the Solaris version, and simplifying things for + amanda users). Thanks to Jason L Tibbitts III + for reporting the bug. + +7. Fixed a compatibility problem in linux/alpha dump tape format. + Now the linux/alpha dump are (again) compatible with the + other dump formats.
