95d326c0 SP |
2 | |
3 | Changes between versions 0.4b26 and 0.4b27 (released ???????????????) | |
4 | ===================================================================== | |
5 | ||
6 | 1. Fixed behaviour of dump when exceeding resource limits | |
7 | (SIGXFSZ treatment). | |
9688d7da | 8 | |
05f23c0c SP |
9 | 2. Added the -L flag to restore to allow the user to specify a |
10 | maximal allowed number of miscompares when using restore | |
11 | with the -C option to check the backup. | |
12 | ||
13 | 3. Detailed the manual entry for the -N option of restore. | |
14 | ||
40df6a0e SP |
15 | 4. Added the -a flag to restore to make able doing unattended |
16 | restores in -i or -x mode (automatically walks through the | |
17 | multiple dump volumes). | |
18 | ||
e51470bf SP |
19 | 5. Extended the QFA mode to work with local files and/or |
20 | remote tapes and files. This way, restore can know in advance | |
21 | the tape number and the offset for the inodes to extract and | |
22 | can minimize the extraction time by seeking directly to the | |
23 | good tape/offset. | |
24 | ||
25 | 6. Added the -A <archive> option to both dump and restore, | |
26 | which makes dump to archive a dump table-of-contents in | |
27 | the specified file to be used by restore to determine | |
28 | whether a file is in the dump file that is being restored. | |
29 | (the archive file syntax is also compatible with the | |
30 | Solaris ufsdump generated one). | |
103122b3 | 31 | |
490aeb91 SP |
32 | Changes between versions 0.4b25 and 0.4b26 (released January 7, 2002) |
33 | ===================================================================== | |
9688d7da SP |
34 | |
35 | 1. Added a set of backup scripts from Eugenio Diaz | |
36 | <getnito@yahoo.com> in the examples section. It features | |
37 | automatic (cron based) full and incremental dumping of | |
38 | several filesystems on a separate filesystem. | |
989f348a | 39 | |
5f918de7 SP |
40 | 2. Fixed a off-by-one miscalculation which disabled dumping |
41 | a one letter subdirectory. Thanks to Chris Siebenmann | |
42 | <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for reporting the bug. | |
43 | ||
ab28ebd4 SP |
44 | 3. Fixed several restore bugs occuring when trying to |
45 | restore some missing files on the tape. Thanks to Chris | |
46 | Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for reporting the bug. | |
47 | ||
e95b2aff SP |
48 | 4. Fixed --with-ldopts configure argument passing, installing from |
49 | a separate object directory, makefile cleanups contributed | |
50 | by <splite@purdue.edu>. | |
51 | ||
8096304e SP |
52 | 5. Fix a bug which could caused, in some conditions, the highest |
53 | number inode of a filesystem, to not be dumped. Many thanks | |
54 | to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for helping me | |
55 | chase this bug. | |
56 | ||
bf8ee3da SP |
57 | Changes between versions 0.4b24 and 0.4b25 (released November 17, 2001) |
58 | ======================================================================= | |
989f348a SP |
59 | |
60 | 1. Added a mini howto from Patrick Walsh in the examples | |
61 | directory. | |
3dd5ecd7 | 62 | |
b82d31dc SP |
63 | 2. Minor man pages syntax corrections. Thanks to |
64 | Chris Danis <screechco@home.com> for reporting the bugs. | |
65 | ||
66 | 3. Added a script from David B. Peterson <dave@toppledwagon.com> | |
67 | to the examples section. It features dumping several | |
68 | filesystems to a remote tape drive upon ssh. | |
69 | ||
70 | 4. Added a patch provided by Richard Jones <rich@annexia.org> | |
71 | which allows BRADEMAX (number of read errors tolerated by | |
72 | dump) to be adjusted using the -I option. | |
73 | ||
f9e97496 SP |
74 | 5. Fixed a bug which disabled doing "restore -C -f -". Thanks |
75 | to Clemens Stiglechner <a9401816@unet.univie.ac.at> for the | |
76 | patch. | |
77 | ||
80dea635 SP |
78 | 6. Add the -l option to restore to specify if, when doing a |
79 | remote restore, the file used to access the backup is a | |
80 | regular file (the defaults being a tape drive). Restore needs | |
81 | to know this information when reading a remote compressed | |
82 | dump. Previously, this information was autodetected, but | |
83 | the autodetection code fails (with ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl | |
3195bc1f SP |
84 | for device) when using a non Linux remote box. Thanks to |
85 | many users and especially to Eros Albertazzi | |
86 | <eros@lamel.bo.cnr.it> for reporting this. | |
87 | ||
a7556ed9 SP |
88 | 7. Found a workaroung for the dump deadlock problem (3 childs |
89 | stuck in pause(), father in read()). The workaround seems | |
90 | to work for me and several beta-testers. If it doesn't work | |
91 | for you, please report back. | |
132daf88 SP |
92 | |
93 | 8. Updated the RPM spec file (BuildPrereq, URL etc). | |
94 | ||
68da8d85 SP |
95 | Changes between versions 0.4b23 and 0.4b24 (released September 12, 2001) |
96 | ======================================================================== | |
3dd5ecd7 | 97 | |
f48a055e SP |
98 | 1. Fixed the permissions of a newly created QFA file by dump. |
99 | ||
100 | 2. Cleaned up the source of dump (the external variables | |
101 | definition was a complete mess, making possible to have | |
102 | objects overlap). | |
6d9ffa3e | 103 | |
e46507f2 SP |
104 | 3. Fixed restore to use the full tape volume path when doing |
105 | a compare (since it changes the working directory to the | |
106 | filesystem being compared in the process). | |
107 | ||
e084ba00 SP |
108 | 4. Added the -q option to dump which makes dump abort |
109 | whenever it needs operator attention. It should be | |
110 | easier to use dump in scripts with this option. | |
111 | ||
8cef350e SP |
112 | 5. Detect the use of incompatible options to dump and |
113 | refuse them (like -a and -B options together). | |
114 | ||
88ef261e SP |
115 | 6. Added bzip2 compression to dump/restore (use option -j level |
116 | to select it). Note that you will need a restore version | |
117 | >= 0.4b24 in order to restore a bzip2 compressed dump. | |
118 | The same warning as for the zlib compression applies: | |
119 | the tape format of a bzip2 dump is not compatible with the | |
120 | original BSD tape format. | |
121 | ||
1df5c692 SP |
122 | 7. Fixed a overflow problem in dump corrupting the dump when |
123 | very large files were encountered. Thanks to Vladimir Nadvornik | |
124 | for the bug report. | |
125 | ||
103245b6 SP |
126 | 8. Added a ioctl(BLKFLSBUF) in dump which should flush the |
127 | kernel buffer/page cache before starting the dump, helping | |
128 | a bit those who use dump on mounted filesystems. Thanks to | |
129 | John Yu <jky@it.bu.edu> and to Theodore T'so <tytso@mit.edu> | |
130 | for this suggestion. | |
caea5c76 SP |
131 | |
132 | 9. Updated the RPM spec file following the RedHat changes | |
133 | (dynamically linked binaries now in /usr/sbin etc). | |
134 | ||
8b7882a8 SP |
135 | 10. Added a patch from Helmut Jarausch <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de> |
136 | which enables restore to recognise multi volume compressed dumps | |
137 | done on CD. Included his scripts for dump (which pipe the dump | |
138 | output directly into cdrecord) and restore. There is now | |
139 | possible to to backups to CD on the fly! | |
140 | ||
3a1a7e1c SP |
141 | Changes between versions 0.4b22 and 0.4b23 (released July 20, 2001) |
142 | =================================================================== | |
6d9ffa3e SP |
143 | |
144 | 1. Fixed a buffer overflow in restore/tape.c. Patch provided by | |
145 | Marcus Meissner (Caldera International Security Dept.). | |
fa7fb417 | 146 | |
5a7167e9 SP |
147 | 2. Implement the Sun rmt extended protocol. Patch submitted |
148 | by Ian Gordon <iangordon@users.sourceforge.net>. | |
149 | ||
e4a8bde4 SP |
150 | 3. Check for the e2fsprogs header <ext2fs/ext2_fs.h> instead of |
151 | the linux kernel header. This ensures that dump always has the | |
152 | latest version of this file. Patch submitted by | |
153 | Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>. | |
154 | ||
8bfad78a SP |
155 | 4. Report any filesystem present in either /etc/fstab with a |
156 | positive passno or /etc/dumpdates in dump -w output. | |
157 | Patch submitted by Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>. | |
158 | ||
ad922073 SP |
159 | 5. Fixed the looping problem in dump introduced in the |
160 | previous version. | |
161 | ||
e7850aac SP |
162 | 6. Changed the -B option of dump to limit the size of |
163 | _compressed_ output per volume if compression is on. | |
164 | Patch contributed by Helmut Jarausch | |
b0522d37 SP |
165 | <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>. Note however that, since |
166 | it is impossible to predict the size of the compressed | |
167 | data before doing the compression, the -B limit is a bit | |
168 | conservative. | |
e7850aac | 169 | |
5bbb0926 SP |
170 | 7. Fixed a bug in reading the operator typed file/tape path for |
171 | the next volume in restore. | |
172 | ||
c534413c SP |
173 | 8. Implemented a "-F script" option to restore which permits the |
174 | user to specify a script which will be launched at the | |
175 | beginning of each tape, useful for automatic programming of | |
176 | tape changers for example. See the restore man page for the | |
177 | script parameters and return codes. | |
178 | ||
b8f7cbe6 SP |
179 | 9. Small fix for the QFA routines provided by Uwe Gohlke |
180 | <uwe@ugsoft.de>, and some recommendations for QFA uses in | |
181 | the man pages. | |
182 | ||
651fb4a5 SP |
183 | 10. Fixed the multivolume restoring where making a mistake |
184 | to the 'Mount next tape' prompt caused several blocks to | |
185 | be lost. | |
186 | ||
6d732772 SP |
187 | 11. Enhanced the -e option of dump to take as a parameter a |
188 | comma separated list of inode numbers. | |
189 | ||
190 | 12. Added the -E option to dump which specify a file containing | |
191 | inode numbers to exclude from the dump. | |
192 | ||
e7979078 SP |
193 | 13. Fixed the compressed multi-volume dump + restore. |
194 | ||
9081ea90 SP |
195 | Changes between versions 0.4b21 and 0.4b22 (released May 12, 2001) |
196 | ================================================================== | |
fa7fb417 | 197 | |
90aa4874 | 198 | 1. Made dump report the number of blocks dumped per volume. |
fa7fb417 | 199 | Thanks to Kenneth Porter <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion. |
58d85348 | 200 | |
90aa4874 SP |
201 | 2. Fix a bug in dump where waiting too much at the 'change volumes' |
202 | question caused the volume to be rewritten. Thanks to | |
203 | Graham Reed <greed@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the | |
204 | bug and providing a patch. | |
205 | ||
a01aa5e8 | 206 | 3. Added a compression option to dump, contributed by Jerry |
401a4d13 | 207 | Peters <gapeters@worldnet.att.net>. |
a01aa5e8 | 208 | |
2b747532 SP |
209 | WARNING: the compression works only on files/pipes and |
210 | drives supporting variable block size. | |
a01aa5e8 SP |
211 | |
212 | WARNING2: tapes created using the compression feature are | |
213 | incompatible with the standard dump tape format, and a | |
214 | version of restore >= 0.4b22 will be needed for extraction. | |
215 | ||
401a4d13 SP |
216 | 4. Fixed some compilation problems for glibc 2.2.2 and 64 bit |
217 | architectures. Thanks to Paul Slootman <paul@debian.org> for | |
218 | the patch and to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for forwarding | |
219 | it upstream. | |
220 | ||
43460f04 | 221 | 5. Many cleanups (CPP defines, const char warnings, check of |
43ef843b SP |
222 | ext2fs COMPAT flags, time_t cleanups, added libext2 version |
223 | in dump usage text) by Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>. | |
43460f04 | 224 | |
60d46c35 SP |
225 | 6. Made --prefix option work in configure. All the install path |
226 | are now based on the configure parameters. | |
227 | ||
35b24fb7 SP |
228 | 7. Added the Quick File Access mode in dump/restore, contributed |
229 | by Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de>. In this mode, dump stores in | |
230 | a file tape position for each inode, and this file is used by | |
231 | restore (if called with parameter Q and the filename) | |
232 | to directly position the tape at the file restore is currently | |
233 | working on. This saves hours when restoring single files from | |
234 | large backups, saves the tapes and the drive's head. Use | |
235 | --enable-qfa option of configure to compile in the QFA support. | |
236 | ||
a94ecd11 SP |
237 | 8. Added the possibility to dump several files and directories |
238 | in a single invocation of dump. Thanks to Uwe Gohlke | |
239 | <uwe@ugsoft.de> for implementing this option. | |
240 | ||
cfa03414 SP |
241 | 9. Fixed the dumping and restoring of files with holes |
242 | (files ending with holes didn't get dumped or restored | |
243 | correctly). | |
244 | ||
700b236e SP |
245 | 10. Fixed a socket descriptor leak in dump, which leaved opened |
246 | 3 file descriptors per dump process (and there is one dump | |
247 | process per tape). | |
248 | ||
95c74f38 SP |
249 | 11. Fixed dump large file system support, by explicit use of |
250 | open64/lseek64/etc functions (explicit use needed because | |
251 | e2fsprogs libraries don't behave well when compiled with | |
252 | FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). | |
253 | ||
35e850a4 SP |
254 | Changes between versions 0.4b20 and 0.4b21 (released January 13, 2001) |
255 | ====================================================================== | |
58d85348 SP |
256 | |
257 | 1. Fixed some bugs in the dump -w|-W logic introduced by | |
258 | the previous version. Thanks to Andreas Dilger | |
259 | <adilger@turbolinux.com> for his help on this one. | |
1099d48c | 260 | |
a23c5022 SP |
261 | 2. Fixed again a compilation problem when using old e2fs |
262 | headers (filesystem label related). Thanks to many users | |
263 | who reported this stupid error. | |
264 | ||
a1158276 | 265 | 3. Fixed a build problem on old lib5 based systems dealing with |
f1266a2f SP |
266 | _PATH_MNTTAB being undefined. Thanks to John Adams |
267 | <johna@onevista.com> for reporting the bug. | |
a1158276 | 268 | |
42bcc624 SP |
269 | 4. Improved the error detection in restore when creating |
270 | the temporary files in TMPDIR. Now restore will corectly | |
271 | report a 'no space left on device' error instead of | |
272 | strange errors which could imply an archive corruption. | |
273 | Thanks to Gabriel Somlo <somlo@cs.colostate.edu> and | |
274 | bgjenero <bgjenero@sympatico.ca> for reporting the bug. | |
275 | ||
88f15c1b SP |
276 | 5. Added the throughput information in dump's progression |
277 | messages. Thanks to Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com> | |
278 | for the patch. | |
279 | ||
0bd5aa90 SP |
280 | 6. Use libext2fs's inode scanning routines, which are particularly |
281 | robust when dealing with errors (especially when having some | |
282 | bad blocks on the filesystem). Many thanks to Colin | |
283 | <colin@horizon.com> for reporting the bug, investigating | |
284 | the issues, finding a workaround, writing the patch and | |
285 | fully testing it... (of course, if this patch will break | |
286 | anything, he is to blame for :-)). | |
287 | ||
7ae7e2fd | 288 | 7. Made dump and restore LFS aware. Dump can dump a filesystem |
d6967896 SP |
289 | containing large files, generate a large file on output and |
290 | restore can restore them. This feature is not enabled by | |
291 | default, use --enable-largefile option of configure to enable | |
292 | it (you need to have a LFS aware glibc though). Thanks to | |
293 | Andrea Arcangeli <andrea@suse.de> for submitting the patch, | |
294 | and to Theodore T'so <tytso@valinux.com> for his always | |
295 | useful thoughts. | |
296 | ||
7ae7e2fd SP |
297 | 8. Made dump ask upon a tape write error if it should rewrite |
298 | the current volume (assume this is a bad tape) or if it should | |
299 | assume an end-of-tape condition (useful for tape drives which | |
300 | behaves badly at the end of the tape). Thanks to Andreas | |
301 | Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com> for the suggestion. | |
302 | ||
e93e901d SP |
303 | Changes between versions 0.4b19 and 0.4b20 (released November 10, 2000) |
304 | ======================================================================= | |
1099d48c | 305 | |
bd731171 SP |
306 | 1. Fixed a small compilation problem due to a change |
307 | in the definintion of the struct sigaction in | |
308 | glibc 2.0 / libc5. Thanks to Gunther Schlegel | |
309 | <schlegel@riege.de> for reporting the bug and to | |
310 | Dave Platt <dplatt@snulbug.mtview.ca.us> for suggesting | |
311 | a fix. | |
1099d48c SP |
312 | |
313 | 2. Modified the label and uuid analysis in order to be | |
314 | self-contained (independant of kernel/libc headers). This | |
315 | should fix the compile with older kernel/libc headers and | |
316 | will preserve the functionality. Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann | |
317 | <bernhard.erdmann@gmx.de> for reporting the bug. | |
318 | ||
1cd75c4c SP |
319 | 3. The 'exclude inode' option, if applied to a directory |
320 | inode, excludes now correctly all the leaves of this | |
321 | directory. Thanks to John R. Dennison | |
322 | <gerdesas@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
f1d86882 | 323 | |
aec13b2a SP |
324 | 4. Fixed the '-e' option to disable the possibility |
325 | to exclude the root inode (which causes the dumps to | |
326 | be unreadable by restore). Prevented array overflow | |
327 | when multiple -e options are used. | |
328 | ||
8c363e9a SP |
329 | 5. Fixed dump to correctly interpret a filesystem argument |
330 | which is a mountpoint and it is not an absolute path | |
331 | (as specified in the fstab). Thanks to Bernhard R. Erdmann | |
332 | <be@berdmann.de> for reporting the bug. | |
333 | ||
abc63c56 SP |
334 | 6. Made dump able to backup files larger than 2 GB. Note that |
335 | dump still doesn't cope with files larger than 4 GB. | |
336 | ||
2c168f5f SP |
337 | 7. Restore the real uid and gid before invoking an external |
338 | RSH program (big hole when dump or restore is suid root!). | |
339 | ||
6169d840 SP |
340 | 8. Get the values for the default tape device and the location |
341 | of fstab file from the system headers. Thanks to | |
342 | Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com> for the patch. | |
343 | ||
51b01afe SP |
344 | 9. Made dump -w|-W report all recognized filesystems |
345 | present in either /etc/fstab or /etc/dumpdates, and present | |
346 | the list in the same order as in fstab file. Thanks | |
347 | to Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com> for the patch. | |
348 | ||
4f4eee3d SP |
349 | 10. Made dump's -a (automatic end of tape detection) the |
350 | default. Specifying one of -B, -c, -d or -s options will | |
351 | override the EOM detection. Thanks to Andreas Dilger | |
352 | <adilger@turbolinux.com> for the patch. | |
353 | ||
95cd8801 SP |
354 | 11. Save the ext2 filesystem label into the dump volume label. |
355 | Specifying a volume label on the command line (-L option) | |
356 | will override this feature. Thanks to Andreas Dilger | |
357 | <adilger@turbolinux.com> for the patch. | |
358 | ||
d56b7aa4 SP |
359 | Changes between versions 0.4b18 and 0.4b19 (released August 20, 2000) |
360 | ===================================================================== | |
f1d86882 SP |
361 | |
362 | 1. Fixed the signal handling in dump (which I broke in 0.4b17) | |
363 | which was causing several strange dump failures (dump | |
364 | hanged or segmentation faults etc). | |
ddf0df5b | 365 | |
65bceb9b SP |
366 | 2. Specified the default blocksize in the dump man page. |
367 | ||
57b19d7f SP |
368 | 3. Changed two info messages of restore to be written on stdout |
369 | instead of stderr in order to leave stderr only for errors | |
370 | or warnings. Thanks to Stephen Atwell | |
371 | <satwell@urbana.css.mot.com> for the suggestion. | |
372 | ||
4f94452b SP |
373 | 4. Corrected an off by one calculation which prevented |
374 | dumping a directory having a 1 character name length. | |
375 | Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann <bernhard.erdmann@gmx.de> | |
376 | for reporting the bug. | |
377 | ||
79e31865 SP |
378 | 5. Reinforce dump in order to allow only level 0 and no |
379 | -u option when dumping a subdirectory, and document | |
380 | this in the man page. Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann | |
381 | <bernhard.erdmann@gmx.de> for reporting the bug. | |
382 | ||
9be511dc SP |
383 | 6. Fixed a small harmless bug in restore which caused |
384 | in some conditions hard links to be restored several | |
385 | times (therefore generation some warning messages). | |
386 | Thanks to Kenneth Porter <shiva@well.com> for | |
387 | reporting the bug. | |
388 | ||
3e815572 | 389 | 7. Updated the RPM spec file to the latest RedHat version, |
1d568d1b | 390 | providing FHS packaging and other cosmetic changes. |
1099d48c | 391 | You will need RPM version >= 3.0.5 in order to build the RPM. |
1d568d1b | 392 | |
3e815572 SP |
393 | 8. Updated the configure script to check for libtermcap |
394 | before checking for libreadline, because we need this | |
395 | library in order to compile the readline support. | |
396 | ||
8954518f SP |
397 | 9. Made dump understand the LABEL= and UUID= notation |
398 | both in /etc/fstab and on the command line. Note that | |
399 | you will need the /proc filesystem in order to use | |
400 | these notations. Thanks to Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> | |
401 | for providing the patch. | |
402 | ||
8cca05cc SP |
403 | Changes between versions 0.4b17 and 0.4b18 (released June 30, 2000) |
404 | =================================================================== | |
ddf0df5b SP |
405 | |
406 | 1. Fixed a potential buffer overflow in restore. Thanks | |
407 | to Stan Bubrouski <satan@fastdial.net> for reporting | |
408 | the bug. | |
30a43325 | 409 | |
64bb207a SP |
410 | 2. Fixed a readline-related bug which prevented |
411 | 'cat DUMPFILE | restore -i -f -' from working. Thanks | |
412 | to Charles Karney <karney@users.sourceforge.net> | |
413 | for the bug report. | |
414 | ||
d572dbfd SP |
415 | 3. Changed a few "panic" into "exit", causing restore to |
416 | be more stable against some attacks (like the last one | |
417 | reported on Bugtraq, although the last version of restore | |
418 | was not vulnerable - just dumped core). Thanks to | |
419 | Andreas Hasenack <andreas@conectiva.com.br> for reporting | |
420 | the bugs to me. | |
421 | ||
882090d1 SP |
422 | 4. Removed the suid-root bit on dump and restore in the |
423 | default build (and generated RPMs). It should be safer | |
424 | now. Users who need the suid-root capabilities in order | |
425 | to make network backups should read first the man page | |
426 | of dump and enable the suid bit manually. | |
427 | ||
5e04cc92 SP |
428 | 5. Added -ltermcap to the compile parameters for restore |
429 | when using readline support, in order to make the compile | |
430 | process work on some systems (SuSE ?). Thanks to | |
431 | Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for reporting the bug. | |
432 | ||
ac443b63 | 433 | Changes between versions 0.4b16 and 0.4b17 (released June 1st, 2000) |
30a43325 SP |
434 | ==================================================================== |
435 | ||
436 | 1. The -F script is called now *only* at the end of a tape, | |
49023a9d | 437 | not at the end of the dump. Thanks to Christian Haul |
30a43325 SP |
438 | <haul@informatik.tu-darmstadt.de> for the bug report. |
439 | ||
d8574d45 SP |
440 | Normally, the device name and the current volume number |
441 | are passed on the command line of the script. However, | |
442 | if you want the old style script (with no arguments | |
443 | passed on the command line), you can enable it in | |
444 | configure with the --enable-oldstylefscript. | |
445 | ||
30a43325 SP |
446 | 2. Use posix signal handling to preserve dump functionality |
447 | with libc5. Thanks to Jeff Johnson <jbj@redhat.com> for | |
448 | the patch. | |
d65ed175 | 449 | |
3d78f5f2 SP |
450 | 3. Made the exit code of restore in case of a 'C'ompare |
451 | command reflect the result of the compare. An exit status | |
452 | of 0 means the dump archive is correct, 1 means tape errors, | |
d8574d45 SP |
453 | 2 means that some files were modified. Thanks to Kenneth Porter |
454 | <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion. | |
3d78f5f2 | 455 | |
d8574d45 | 456 | 4. Made (finally) quotes work in interactive restore. |
386d48c0 | 457 | |
a110deb5 | 458 | 5. Small fixes in order to allow dump to compile with a |
d8574d45 SP |
459 | really old e2fsprogs version. Thanks to Ian Zimmerman |
460 | <itz@speakeasy.org> for the bug report. | |
a110deb5 | 461 | |
c38e5b6a SP |
462 | 6. Add GNU readline capabilities to interactive restore. |
463 | Use configure's --enable-readline flag to enable this feature. | |
d8574d45 SP |
464 | Thanks to Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for the |
465 | suggestion. | |
466 | ||
467 | 7. Do the compare on the fly in restore 'C' mode (this will | |
468 | allow not to exhaust the available /tmp space when | |
469 | ccmparing large files). Thanks to Kenneth Porter | |
470 | <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion. | |
c38e5b6a | 471 | |
107a347c SP |
472 | Changes between versions 0.4b15 and 0.4b16 (released March 11, 2000) |
473 | ==================================================================== | |
d65ed175 SP |
474 | |
475 | 1. Fixed some several duplicate 'DUMP: DUMP:' in the | |
476 | output of dump. | |
d3393043 | 477 | |
cbc94239 SP |
478 | 2. Corrected the estimation of blocks to dump. Note that |
479 | this is still wrong for large directory inodes, due | |
480 | to the size of a BSD directory entry on the tape | |
481 | (estimation is based on the size of the ext2 directory, | |
482 | which is smaller because it doesn't contain the null | |
483 | character at the end). | |
484 | ||
485 | 3. Made dump report the total number of MB written to | |
486 | tape at the end of run. Thanks to W. Reilly Cooley | |
487 | <wcooley@nakedape.cc> for the patch. | |
488 | ||
08db2b86 SP |
489 | 4. Added the -X option to restore giving the possibility |
490 | to read the names of the files to be extracted/listed | |
1a05d45d SP |
491 | from a text file (in addition of the command line). |
492 | Thanks to Dejan Muhamedagic <dejan@quant-x.com> for the | |
493 | patch. | |
08db2b86 | 494 | |
365a7c7c SP |
495 | 5. Added the device name and the current volume number |
496 | as arguments to the end of tape script (dump -F option). | |
497 | ||
24ea1fb9 SP |
498 | 6. Made the multi-volume dump work again (after having |
499 | broken it in 0.4b15). | |
500 | ||
2f7e72ce SP |
501 | Changes between versions 0.4b14 and 0.4b15 (released March 2, 2000) |
502 | =================================================================== | |
d3393043 SP |
503 | |
504 | 1. Added a prompt command in interactive restore mode. Thanks | |
505 | to Andreas Dilger <adilger@home.com> for the patch. | |
d6f78b13 | 506 | |
92a9bf12 SP |
507 | 2. Fixed a buffer overflow problem in dump (caused by |
508 | not checking the size of the filesystem parameter). | |
509 | Thanks to Kim Yong-jun <loveyou@hackerslab.org> for | |
510 | reporting this on Bugtraq (and to several dump users | |
511 | who forwarded me his mail). | |
512 | ||
0d7af9c5 SP |
513 | 3. Added the '-F script' option to dump in order to |
514 | launch a script at the end of each tape (to be used | |
515 | with a tape changer, or to notify the sysadmin by | |
516 | pager etc.). | |
517 | ||
518 | 4. Fixed a bug in restore compare code caused by the changes | |
519 | I made in 0.4b14. | |
520 | ||
521 | 5. Fixed the treatment of options using the old BSD syntax | |
522 | in both dump and restore. | |
523 | ||
688653ea SP |
524 | Changes between versions 0.4b13 and 0.4b14 (released February 10, 2000) |
525 | ======================================================================= | |
d6f78b13 SP |
526 | |
527 | 1. Fixed a bug in dump which may have caused invalid deleted | |
528 | directories to be dumped out if they were deleted after the | |
529 | mapping pass. This could occure on active filesystem and lead | |
530 | to heap corruption (causing dump malfunction in many possible ways). | |
531 | Thanks to Jan Sanislo <oystr@cs.washington.edu> for finding this | |
532 | bug and submitting the patch. | |
ae58c8da | 533 | |
a2c9bd28 SP |
534 | 2. Fixed the handling of the filesystem parameter in dump. A |
535 | '/mnt/disk' parameter caused the disk contents to be dumped, | |
536 | but a '/mnt/disk/' parameter caused the mountpoint directory | |
537 | to be dumped (generally an empty directory). | |
538 | ||
539 | 3. Improved the output of dump in order to tell which directory | |
540 | it is currently dumping (when dumping a subtree). | |
541 | ||
20c345aa SP |
542 | 4. Added the '-e' exclude inode option to dump. Thanks to |
543 | Isaac Chuang <ike@isl.stanford.edu> for contributing with the patch. | |
544 | ||
d8476fa5 SP |
545 | 5. Added a REPORTING-BUGS file in order to provide a guide |
546 | on how to correctly report a bug in dump/restore. | |
547 | ||
c60338a5 SP |
548 | 6. Fixed a restore problem when restoring a hard link to an inode |
549 | having the immutable or append-only attribute set. Thanks to | |
550 | Ambrose Li <acli@mingpaoxpress.com> for submitting the patch. | |
551 | ||
8eb05297 SP |
552 | 7. Fixed a compatibility problem between dumps made on little |
553 | endian machines (the format was correct) and big endian | |
554 | machines (the format was incorrect). This fix break the | |
555 | compatibility with the older dumps made on big endian | |
556 | machines (sparc, m86k, ppc etc). For the first time in | |
557 | linux dump's history (I believe), the dumps made by *BSD, | |
558 | Linux/alpha, Linux/sparc and Linux/x86 are compatible, | |
559 | so interchangeable. Thanks to Rob Cermak | |
560 | <cermak@ahab.rutgers.edu> for submitting the bug and | |
561 | helping me test the fix. | |
562 | ||
563 | 8. Fixed the way dump reports the remaining percent/time, if | |
564 | the number of blocks actually dumped exceeds the estimated | |
565 | number of blocks. Thanks to Jean-Paul van der Jagt | |
566 | <jeanpaul@dutepp0.et.tudelft.nl> for reporting the bug. | |
567 | ||
d4b74b5c SP |
568 | Changes between versions 0.4b12 and 0.4b13 (released January 21, 2000) |
569 | ====================================================================== | |
2f9a0c5c SP |
570 | |
571 | 1. Small Y2K fix in the man pages :). Thanks to Bernhard Sadlowski | |
572 | <sadlowsk@Mathematik.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for reporting the bug. | |
573 | ||
6dda05e4 SP |
574 | 2. Removed the requirement to build the RPM as root from the |
575 | spec file. Thanks to Christian Weisgerber | |
576 | <naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de> for submitting this. | |
577 | ||
8d957ae7 | 578 | 3. Fixed a bug in dump related to the 'filetype' feature of ext2fs, |
f346e363 SP |
579 | causing dump to block when dumping really huge filesystems. |
580 | Many thanks to Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for | |
581 | helping me find this bug. | |
582 | ||
8d957ae7 | 583 | 4. Fixed the treatment for an interrupt signal when dump access |
b80c25f8 SP |
584 | the remote tape through RSH. Thanks to Christian Weisgerber |
585 | <naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de> for providing the patch. | |
586 | ||
8d957ae7 SP |
587 | 5. Fixed a bug which was causing dump/restore to display |
588 | garbage characters instead of the remote host name. | |
589 | ||
2f9a0c5c | 590 | Changes between versions 0.4b11 and 0.4b12 (released January 8, 2000) |
df172bbb | 591 | ===================================================================== |
ae58c8da SP |
592 | |
593 | 1. Small fix in the dump man page. Thanks to Thorsten Kukuk | |
594 | <kukuk@suse.de> for submitting the patch. | |
2ed89fda | 595 | |
a29c23cc SP |
596 | 2. Fix for the exit code when using the size estimate option of |
597 | dump. Thanks to Matti Taskinen <mkt@rni.helsinki.fi> for | |
598 | submitting the patch. | |
599 | ||
2e682895 SP |
600 | 3. Handle EINTR in atomical reads/writes in dump, which was causing |
601 | dump to fail on some systems. Thanks to Eric Jergensen | |
602 | <eric@dvns.com> for reporting the bug and submitting the patch. | |
603 | ||
604 | 4. Handle more than 16 characters for the device names in dumpdates. | |
605 | (up to 255 now). Thanks to Rainer Clasen <bj@ncc.cicely.de> for | |
606 | tracking down the problem and proposing the solution. | |
607 | ||
608 | 5. Fixed a bug in dump which prevented the creation of the | |
609 | dumpdates file when doing a 0-level dump without already | |
610 | having a dumpdates file. Thanks to Patrik Schindler | |
611 | <poc@pocnet.net> for reporting the bug. | |
612 | ||
613 | 6. Changed the way dump 'S' flag reports the size estimate | |
614 | from number of blocks into bytes (making it compatible | |
615 | with the Solaris version, and simplifying things for | |
616 | amanda users). Thanks to Jason L Tibbitts III | |
617 | <tibbs@math.uh.edu> for reporting the bug. | |
618 | ||
0d0bc326 SP |
619 | 7. Fixed a compatibility problem in linux/alpha dump tape format. |
620 | Now the linux/alpha dump are (again) compatible with the | |
621 | other dump formats. But this breaks compatibility with | |
622 | older dumps made on alpha. Thanks to Mike Tibor | |
623 | <tibor@lib.uaa.alaska.edu> for helping me in finding this bug. | |
624 | ||
cf9aab8e | 625 | Changes between versions 0.4b10 and 0.4b11 (released December 5, 1999) |
2ed89fda SP |
626 | ====================================================================== |
627 | ||
628 | 1. Added a '--enable-kerberos' to configure. | |
5c1faba5 | 629 | |
144a6db1 | 630 | 2. Added a 'S' option to dump which determines the amount of space |
5c729713 | 631 | that is needed to perform the dump without actually doing it, similar |
144a6db1 SP |
632 | to the Sun's ufsdump 'S' option. Patch contributed by Rob Cermak |
633 | <cermak@ahab.rutgers.edu>. | |
634 | ||
677ee424 SP |
635 | 3. Added a 'M' multi-volume option to dump and restore which enables |
636 | dumping to multiple files (useful when dumping to an ext2 | |
637 | partition to make several dump files in order to bypass the 2GB | |
638 | file size limitation). The 'f' argument is treated as a prefix and | |
639 | the output files will be named <prefix>001, <prefix>002 etc. With | |
640 | the 'M' flag, restore automatically selects the right file without | |
641 | asking to enter a new tape each time. | |
642 | ||
7fbb9b02 | 643 | 4. Fixed a memory leak which was causing dump to grow very big |
a29c23cc SP |
644 | (270MB when dumping a 10GB filesystem...). Thanks to Jason |
645 | Fearon <jasonf@netrider.org.au> for reporting the bug. | |
7fbb9b02 | 646 | |
27026010 SP |
647 | Changes between versions 0.4b9 and 0.4b10 (released November 21, 1999) |
648 | ====================================================================== | |
5c1faba5 SP |
649 | |
650 | 1. Make configure test if the system glob routines support | |
651 | extended syntax (ALTDIRFUNC). If not, use the internal glob | |
a95c4c36 SP |
652 | routines instead of system ones. Thanks to Bernhard Sadlowski |
653 | <sadlowsk@Mathematik.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for reporting the bug | |
654 | and helping me resolve this and other minor libc5 compiling | |
655 | glitches. | |
08ebf8d7 | 656 | |
c5886bd7 SP |
657 | 2. Fix a problem when dumping a ext2fs with the 'filetype' |
658 | feature enabled. Thanks to Patrick J. LoPresti | |
659 | <patl@cag.lcs.mit.edu> for reporting the bug and to | |
660 | Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> for providing the patch. | |
661 | ||
4267a8ad SP |
662 | 3. Made the nodump flag work on directories. A directory which |
663 | has the nodump flag gets never dumped, regardless of its | |
664 | contents. | |
665 | ||
c930abff SP |
666 | 4. Integrate a patch from Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> |
667 | which allows dump on an active ext3 filesystem. However, this | |
668 | is a "quick and dirty" patch which enables backup of an ext3 | |
669 | filesystem through the ext2 compatibility (by ignoring the | |
670 | NEEDS_RECOVERY bit). The journal file is not recognized and | |
671 | it is dumped (it should not). | |
672 | ||
673 | 5. Test the superblock compatibility flags when dumping, in order | |
674 | to be sure that we know how to deal with specific features. | |
675 | ||
08ebf8d7 SP |
676 | Changes between versions 0.4b8 and 0.4b9 (released November 5, 1999) |
677 | ==================================================================== | |
678 | ||
679 | 1. Use lchown instead of chown, fixing a possible security problem | |
680 | when restoring symlinks (a malicious user could use this | |
681 | to deliberately corrupt the ownership of important system files). | |
682 | Thanks to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for detecting | |
683 | this and providing the patch. | |
ec387a12 | 684 | |
c154548c SP |
685 | Changes between versions 0.4b7 and 0.4b8 (released November 3, 1999) |
686 | ==================================================================== | |
ec387a12 | 687 | |
df9ae507 SP |
688 | 1. Put dump sources under CVS, added Id tags in all files so |
689 | one can use 'ident' on binary files. | |
690 | ||
691 | 2. Added the dump/restore version in the usage text so one can | |
692 | easily verify the version he is using. | |
ec387a12 | 693 | |
3072400e SP |
694 | 3. Small patch from Nuno Oliveira <nuno@eq.uc.pt> which fixes |
695 | a va_start/va_end problem on linux-ppc (always call va_start | |
696 | va_end in pairs each time we use a vararg function). | |
697 | ||
fa58b58d SP |
698 | 4. Added again the DT_* constants because old libc does not |
699 | contain them :(. Thanks to Eric Maisonobe <virnet@nat.fr> | |
700 | for submitting the bug report. | |
701 | ||
f34aca37 SP |
702 | 5. Use ext2fs_llseek instead of llseek. With recent e2fsprogs |
703 | this should enable dumping big (huge) filesystems. | |
704 | ||
705 | 6. Added the RSH environment variable in order to be able to | |
0c62667d SP |
706 | use a rsh replacement like ssh when doing remote backups (and |
707 | bypass the security limitations of rcmd). Now you can do remote | |
708 | backups without being root (or making dump setuid root). | |
709 | ||
f34aca37 | 710 | 7. Modified again the way dumpdates works. For incremental dumps, |
60f5ede9 SP |
711 | we need to read dumpdates even if we are not using 'u' option. |
712 | Thanks to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for his ideas on how | |
713 | this should work. | |
714 | ||
8d4197bb SP |
715 | Changes between versions 0.4b6 and 0.4b7 (released October 8, 1999) |
716 | =================================================================== | |
717 | ||
718 | 1. Removed the 'k' flag from the restore 'about' text if kerberos | |
719 | was not compiled in. | |
720 | ||
721 | 2. Prototyped (f)setflags from e2fsprogs and corrected the calls | |
722 | to them (fsetflags takes a char*, setflags an open fd!). | |
723 | ||
724 | 3. (f)setflags is called only if the flags aren't empty. If the | |
725 | file is a special file, a warning is printed, because changing | |
726 | flags implies opening the device. Normally, a special file | |
727 | should not have any flag... (Debian bug #29775, patch provided | |
728 | by Abhijit Dasgupta <abhijit@ans.net>). | |
729 | ||
730 | 4. Made possible to dump a file system not mentioned in /etc/fstab. | |
731 | (Debian bug #11904, patch provided by Eirik Fuller <eirik@netcom.com>). | |
732 | ||
733 | 5. Changed the default behaviour to not create dumpdates | |
734 | unless 'u' option is specified. Removed the old "debian-patch" | |
735 | which provided the same thing. (Debian bug #38136, #33818). | |
736 | ||
737 | 6. Removed all those dump*announce, since they were getting old... | |
738 | ||
739 | 7. Added warning messages if dumpdates does not exist and | |
740 | when an inferior level dump does not exist (except for a level 0 | |
741 | dump). | |
742 | ||
743 | 8. Debugged the glob calls in interactive mode: restore used a | |
744 | dirent struct which was different from the /usr/include/dirent.h | |
745 | one (this used to work, is it a glibc2 change?), so none of the | |
746 | compat glob (which used /usr/include/dirent.h) or the system glob | |
747 | worked. Restore use now the system dirent (and the system | |
748 | DT_* constants), which are compatible with BSD ones. | |
749 | ||
750 | 9. Added a configure flag (--with-dumpdatespath) to specify | |
751 | the location of dumpdates file. By default, it is | |
752 | /etc/dumpdates. | |
753 | ||
754 | 10. Added the "AUTHOR" and "AVAILABILITY" sections and | |
755 | included the current date/version in man pages. | |
756 | ||
757 | 11. Corrected the estimation of remaining time when | |
758 | the operator doesn't change the tapes quickly enough. This | |
759 | was an old bug, I thought I corrected it, and discovered | |
760 | that in fact it was corrected in two different places, so | |
761 | the results canceled each other... | |
762 | ||
763 | Changes between versions 0.4b5 and 0.4b6 (released October 1, 1999) | |
764 | =================================================================== | |
ddd2ef55 SP |
765 | |
766 | 1. Integrated multiple patches from RedHat, Debian and SuSE: | |
767 | ||
768 | - tweak dump/itime.c to not try to read dumpdates if the 'u' option | |
769 | isn't specified. | |
770 | - several fixes in the man pages. | |
771 | - update the default tape device to /dev/st0. | |
772 | - many updates for Linux Alpha (byte ordering, size_t etc). | |
773 | - buffer overruns. | |
774 | - use environment variable for TMPDIR (instead of /tmp). | |
775 | - use sigjmp_buf instead of jmp_buf (RedHat bug #3260). | |
776 | - workaround egcs bug (RedHat bugs #4281 and #2989). | |
777 | - wire $(OPT) throughout Makefile's. | |
778 | ||
8d4197bb SP |
779 | 2. Upgrade the dump revision to 1, making possible to dump filesystems |
780 | made with e2fsprogs-1.15 or newer. Nothing seems to break... | |
ddd2ef55 | 781 | |
8d4197bb SP |
782 | 3. Fix some compile warnings, prototype all functions. |
783 | ||
784 | 4. Use glibc err/glob instead of internal compatibility | |
ddd2ef55 SP |
785 | routines (only if available). |
786 | ||
8d4197bb SP |
787 | 5. Fix a compile error on Linux 2.2.7 / libc5 (5.4.44) (patch provided |
788 | by Bernhard Sadlowski <sadlowsk@mathematik.uni-bielefeld.de>). | |
789 | ||
790 | Changes between versions 0.4b4 and 0.4b5 (released September 22, 1999) | |
791 | ====================================================================== | |
b45f51d6 SP |
792 | |
793 | 1. Integrated the changes from FreeBSD-3.1-RELEASE | |
794 | (mostly bug fixes, buffer overruns, dump has now an "automatic | |
795 | tape length calculation" flag, dump/restore can use kerberos now | |
796 | (this is NOT tested), use environment variables for TAPE and | |
797 | RMT etc.). | |
798 | ||
799 | 2. Integrated three RedHat patches ("glibc", "kernel" and "bread" patches) | |
800 | ||
801 | 3. Corrected a bug in restore when using 'C' option with multi-volumes | |
802 | tapes (files splited accros two tapes give "size changed" errors | |
803 | when comparing). | |
804 | ||
805 | 4. Corrected the long standing bug when dumping multiple tapes. | |
806 | This works for me, needs further testing. | |

8d4197bb SP |
808 | Changes between versions 0.4b3 and 0.4b4 (released January 17, 1997) |
809 | ==================================================================== | |
1227625a SP |
810 | |
811 | 1. Dump now runs correctly on kernels 2.1.x | |
812 | Fix made by Gerald Peters <gapeters@worldnet.att.net> | |
813 | ||
814 | Changes between versions 0.4b2 and 0.4b3 | |
815 | ======================================== | |
816 | ||
817 | 1. Use realpath() if available | |
818 | ||
819 | 2. Report statistics | |
820 | ||
821 | Changes between versions 0.4b1 and 0.4b2 | |
822 | ======================================== | |
823 | ||
824 | 1. Fixed the bug fix from Greg Lutz (I had made a mistake when integrating | |
825 | the patch) | |
826 | ||
827 | 2. Fixed restore to make it able to read FreeBSD 2.x dumps again | |
828 | ||
829 | 3. Fixed configure.in to correctly handle --enable-rmt | |
830 | ||
831 | Changes between versions 0.3 and 0.4b1 | |
832 | ====================================== | |
833 | ||
834 | 1. Integrated the changes from 4.4BSD-Lite2 | |
835 | ||
836 | 2. Integrated the patches from Debian and Red Hat | |
837 | ||
838 | 3. Portability changes: use the __u32, __u16, __s32, and __s16 types | |
839 | ||
840 | 4. Changed dump to use the Ext2fs library to get block addresses. This | |
841 | should solve the endianness problem on SparcLinux. | |
842 | ||
843 | 5. Created a configure.in file (shamelessly stolen from the e2fsprogs | |
844 | distribution's one) to use autoconf | |
845 | ||
846 | 6. Fixed a few minor bugs | |
847 | ||
848 | Changes between versions 0.2e and 0.2f | |
849 | ====================================== | |
850 | ||
851 | 1. Added the creation of named pipes (fifos) in restore. | |
852 | ||
853 | 2. Added the -N flag in the restore manual page. | |
854 | ||
855 | 3. Added the file kernel.patch which contains the llseek() optimization | |
856 | patch for 1.2.x kernels. | |
857 | ||
858 | 4. Fixed a bug in the restoration of symbolic links: owner and group were | |
859 | not restored. | |
860 | ||
861 | 5. Integrated some changes from FreeBSD 2.2. | |
862 | ||
863 | 6. Added a call to ftruncate() after restoring each file to restore | |
864 | correctly files ending by a hole. | |
865 | ||
866 | Changes between versions 0.2d and 0.2e | |
867 | ====================================== | |
868 | ||
869 | 1. Fixed a bug in the "set owner/mode" process. Every file was restored | |
870 | with owner = root (0) and group = root/wheel/whatever (0). | |
871 | ||
872 | Changes between versions 0.2c and 0.2d | |
873 | ====================================== | |
874 | ||
875 | 1. Dump is now able to backup 2GB+ filesystems. | |
876 | ||
877 | 2. Dump and restore can now be linked as static binaries. | |
878 | ||
879 | Changes between versions 0.2b and 0.2c | |
880 | ====================================== | |
881 | ||
882 | 1. Fixed a bug when dumping ``slow'' (i.e. normal) symbolic links. | |
883 | ||
884 | Changes between versions 0.2a and 0.2b | |
885 | ====================================== | |
886 | ||
887 | 1. Really fixed the bug that I should have corrected in 0.2a. | |
888 | ||
889 | 2. Enabled optimization again. | |
890 | ||
891 | Changes between versions 0.2 and 0.2a | |
892 | ===================================== | |
893 | ||
894 | 1. Disabled the optimization during compilation. | |
895 | ||
896 | Changes between versions 0.1 and 0.2 | |
897 | ==================================== | |
898 | ||
899 | 1. Fixed a bug in fstab.c which caused a null pointer to be stored in | |
900 | the fs_type field (actually, I modified the file fstab.c to make it | |
901 | use the mntent functions). | |
902 | ||
903 | 2. Dump and restore now use a 4.3 BSD compatible dump format. Backups | |
904 | made by dump should be readable by the BSD restore and backups made | |
905 | by the BSD dump should be readable by restore. Unfortunately, this | |
906 | means that the dump format has changed between version 0.1 and version | |
907 | 0.2 :-( | |
908 | ||
909 | 3. Dump is now able to backup a subtree, it is no longer limited to whole | |
910 | filesystems like the BSD version. | |
911 | ||
912 | 4. Dump now uses ext2_llseek() so it is able to backup filesystems bigger | |
913 | than 2 GB. | |
914 | ||
915 | Changes between versions 0.0 and 0.1 | |
916 | ==================================== | |
917 | ||
918 | 1. Now create links rdump and rrestore during the `make install' step. | |
919 | ||
920 | 2. Linux port specific bugs added to the manual pages | |
921 | ||
922 | 3. Incorrect estimation of the number of tapes blocks fixed when doing | |
923 | incremental backups. | |
924 | ||
925 | 4. Better ls-like format in restore in interactive mode. |
