Fixed a small compilation problem due to a change + in the definintion of the struct sigaction in + glibc 2.0 / libc5. Thanks to Gunther Schlegel + for reporting the bug and to + Dave Platt for suggesting + a fix. + +2. Modified the label and uuid analysis in order to be + self-contained (independant of kernel/libc headers). This + should fix the compile with older kernel/libc headers and + will preserve the functionality. Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann + for reporting the bug. + +3. The 'exclude inode' option, if applied to a directory + inode, excludes now correctly all the leaves of this + directory. Thanks to John R. Dennison + for reporting the bug. + +4. Fixed the '-e' option to disable the possibility + to exclude the root inode (which causes the dumps to + be unreadable by restore). Prevented array overflow + when multiple -e options are used. + +5. Fixed dump to correctly interpret a filesystem argument + which is a mountpoint and it is not an absolute path + (as specified in the fstab). Thanks to Bernhard R. Erdmann + for reporting the bug. + +6. Made dump able to backup files larger than 2 GB. Note that + dump still doesn't cope with files larger than 4 GB. + +7. Restore the real uid and gid before invoking an external + RSH program (big hole when dump or restore is suid root!). + +8. Get the values for the default tape device and the location + of fstab file from the system headers. Thanks to + Andreas Dilger for the patch. + +9. Made dump -w|-W report all recognized filesystems + present in either /etc/fstab or /etc/dumpdates, and present + the list in the same order as in fstab file. Thanks + to Andreas Dilger for the patch. + +10. Made dump's -a (automatic end of tape detection) the + default. Specifying one of -B, -c, -d or -s options will + override the EOM detection. Thanks to Andreas Dilger + for the patch. + +11. Save the ext2 filesystem label into the dump volume label. + Specifying a volume label on the command line (-L option) + will override this feature.

Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann + for reporting the bug. + +6. Fixed a small harmless bug in restore which caused + in some conditions hard links to be restored several + times (therefore generation some warning messages). + Thanks to Kenneth Porter for + reporting the bug. + +7. Updated the RPM spec file to the latest RedHat version, + providing FHS packaging and other cosmetic changes. + You will need RPM version >= 3.0.5 in order to build the RPM. + +8. Updated the configure script to check for libtermcap + before checking for libreadline, because we need this + library in order to compile the readline support. + +9. Made dump understand the LABEL= and UUID= notation + both in /etc/fstab and on the command line. Note that + you will need the /proc filesystem in order to use + these notations.
