2 | ||
3 | Changes between versions 0.4b41 and 0.4b42 (released xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) | |
4 | ===================================================================== | |
5 | ||
6 | 1. Fix printout of the 'Connection to' message in dump/restore. | |
7 | Thanks to Dale Wiles <dwiles@users.sourceforge.net> for the | |
8 | bug report and its fix. | |
9 | ||
10 | 2. Fix dump -w/-W output for filesystems having the last backup | |
11 | level equal to 0. Thanks to Pascal Bouchareine | |
12 | <kalou@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
13 | ||
14 | Changes between versions 0.4b40 and 0.4b41 (released January 2, 2006) | |
15 | ===================================================================== | |
16 | ||
17 | 1. Fix restore of dumped Access Control Lists. The previous | |
18 | code for EA works fine, but ACLs needed conversion from the | |
19 | ext2/3 disk format to posix_acl format before restoring. | |
20 | ||
21 | 2. Fix some issues with restoration of EA on big endian | |
22 | platforms. | |
23 | ||
24 | 3. Fix restore when the symtab is over 2GB in size. | |
25 | ||
26 | 4. Made the directory hash indexing an optional feature, | |
27 | accessible by the '-H' option of restore, and disable it | |
28 | by default. | |
29 | ||
30 | 5. Fixed dump to not include extended attributes information | |
31 | in the toc (archive) file which confused restore -t. | |
32 | ||
33 | Changes between versions 0.4b39 and 0.4b40 (released May 2, 2005) | |
34 | ================================================================= | |
35 | ||
36 | 1. Changed restore to emit warnings (instead of emitting a fatal | |
37 | error) if a file (or a directory) is unavailable for a | |
38 | comparision (if the user doesn't have the necessary permissions | |
39 | to access it for example). Thanks to Kenneth Porter | |
40 | <shiva@sewingwitch.com> for the bug report. | |
41 | ||
42 | 2. Re-done the 'do not save directory entries to non-dumped inodes | |
43 | (excluded from dump)' feature. The previous implementation | |
44 | worked well for excluded directories but not for regular files. | |
45 | Thanks to Kenneth Porter <shiva@sewingwitch.com> for the bug | |
46 | report. | |
47 | ||
48 | 3. Fixed a bug in dump where the tape size was miscalculated when | |
49 | the user used -d/-s to specify the tape characteristics. Thanks | |
50 | to Philip Goisman <goisman@physics.arizona.edu> for reporting | |
51 | the bug. | |
52 | ||
53 | 4. Fixed another bug introduced in restore with the hashtree | |
54 | implementation. This one caused restore to stop saying | |
55 | "removenode: non-empty directory" in some cases. | |
56 | ||
57 | 5. Added support for dumping and restoring ext2/3 extended | |
58 | attributes (EA), like the access control lists (ACL) or | |
59 | the security labels used by SELinux. | |
60 | ||
61 | Changes between versions 0.4b38 and 0.4b39 (released January 21, 2005) | |
62 | ====================================================================== | |
63 | ||
64 | 1. The newly added dump_on_cd_3 example was buggy, replace it | |
65 | with an updated version from Andrew Basterfield | |
66 | <bob@cemetery.homeunix.org>. | |
67 | ||
68 | 2. Made restore to chdir() back into the initial directory when | |
69 | dumping core while aborting a comparision operation. The | |
70 | previous behaviour was to write the corefile at the root of | |
71 | the directory being compared, which could very well be | |
72 | read only and preventing the corefile generation. Thanks | |
73 | to Kenneth Porter <shiva@sewingwitch.com> for the bug report. | |
74 | ||
75 | 3. Silenced the failure to call fgetflags() when comparing an | |
76 | entry which has no ext2 attributes (as in lsattr()). | |
77 | ||
78 | 4. Fix a brown paper bug in restore -C which broke restore and | |
79 | caused modifications on the filesystem being compared | |
80 | (directories containing a file with the same name as the | |
81 | directory get renamed to RSTTMP...). Thanks to Kenneth Porter | |
82 | <shiva@sewingwitch.com> for finding the bug and helping me | |
83 | reproduce it. | |
84 | ||
85 | 5. Made restore -C force the -N flag (no writing allowed on | |
86 | the disk) in order to prevent more bugs like the above one. | |
87 | ||
88 | Changes between versions 0.4b37 and 0.4b38 (released January 7, 2005) | |
89 | ===================================================================== | |
90 | ||
91 | 1. Fix a couple of troff syntax bugs in the man pages. | |
92 | Thanks to Eric Raymond <esr@thyrsus.com> for the patch. | |
93 | ||
94 | 2. Made restore use either libncurses or libtermcap, depending | |
95 | on which one is available at configure time. | |
96 | ||
97 | 3. Fixed restore negative size display bug when comparing a | |
98 | dump containing files over 2GB. Thanks to Steve Bonds | |
99 | <sbonds@users.sourceforge.net> for the bug report. | |
100 | ||
101 | 4. Do not save directory entries to non-dumped inodes | |
102 | (excluded from dump). This will eliminate the 'missing | |
103 | file' warnings when doing 'restore -C'. | |
104 | ||
105 | 5. Fix dump crash when backuping a huge (2TB) filesystem, | |
106 | due to a bogus calculation on the inode map size. | |
107 | Thanks to Kevin B. Haines <K.B.Haines@rl.ac.uk> for | |
108 | submitting the bug and testing the fix. | |
109 | ||
110 | 6. Fix a problem in restore where the final \0 in the symbolic | |
111 | link names could have been lost, generating corrupt filenames. | |
112 | Thanks to Kyle Wilson <kyle.wilson@amd.com> for reporting the | |
113 | bug. | |
114 | ||
115 | 7. Implemented a hash list for the directory names in restore. | |
116 | The linear list used before caused problems in interactive | |
117 | restores when dealing with directories having thousands of | |
118 | entries. Thanks to Brian Ristuccia <bristuccia@starentnetworks.com> | |
119 | for reporting the bug. | |
120 | ||
121 | 8. Improved restore -C, this time including the directory | |
122 | attributes into the comparision. | |
123 | ||
124 | 9. Made restore understand tapes containing EA/ACLs (which will | |
125 | be dumped by the next version of dump). In this version | |
126 | extended attributes on the tape are ignored, for full EA/ACL | |
127 | support wait for the next version or try the experimental EA | |
128 | patch. | |
129 | ||
130 | Changes between versions 0.4b36 and 0.4b37 (released July 7, 2004) | |
131 | ================================================================== | |
132 | ||
133 | 1. Added the --enable-staticz configure option which enables | |
134 | dump and restore to be linked with static versions of | |
135 | libz and libbz2 (and dynamic versions of all other libraries). | |
136 | This will make Debian users happy, because libz and libbz2 | |
137 | were the only needed libraries living in /usr, all the | |
138 | others live in /lib. In case of system emergency, it is | |
139 | better not to have to rely on an extra filesystem. | |
140 | Thanks to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for the suggestion. | |
141 | ||
142 | 2. Fix compilation on (at least the Linux Debian port to) AMD64. | |
143 | (<ext2fs/ext2_types.h> defines some types (__s64 and __u64) | |
144 | that are also defined by <linux/types.h> (<asm/types.h>) and | |
145 | they conflict). | |
146 | ||
147 | 3. Make dump's reading of the dumpdates file a bit more robust, | |
148 | preventing dump from crashing when the dumpdates file has | |
149 | been modified by hand. | |
150 | ||
151 | 4. Fixed some offset calculations in dump code which could | |
152 | lead to "bread lseek errors" on large filesystems. Thanks | |
153 | to Bruce Lowekamp <lowekamp@users.sourceforge.net> for | |
154 | reporting this bug and debugging the issue. | |
155 | ||
156 | 5. Made dump use the blkid library when searching for devices | |
157 | by label or uuid instead of dump's own routines. | |
158 | ||
159 | 6. Corrected a bug in dump where a wrong LABEL=... line in | |
160 | /etc/fstab could prevent dump from dumping unrelated | |
161 | filesystems. Thanks to Bruce Lowekamp | |
162 | <lowekamp@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
163 | ||
164 | Changes between versions 0.4b35 and 0.4b36 (released April 21, 2004) | |
165 | ==================================================================== | |
166 | ||
167 | 1. Fixed dump compilation with old gcc versions. Thanks to | |
168 | Mike Castle <dalgoda@users.sourceforge.net> for the patch. | |
169 | ||
170 | 2. Fixed some warnings (howmany, roundup, powerof2 redefined) | |
171 | when compiling against a recent glibc version. | |
172 | ||
173 | 3. Fixed a bug in restore preventing the read of a dump tape | |
174 | written with Solaris 7 ufsdump. Thanks to Patrick Higgins | |
175 | <phiggins@transzap.com> for reporting the bug and providing | |
176 | the test case. | |
177 | ||
178 | 4. Changed dump to enable the creation of volumes of different | |
179 | sizes in a single run (make -B accept a list of values). | |
180 | Patch contributed by Florian Zumbiehl <florz@gmx.de>. | |
181 | ||
182 | 5. Use the glibc provided minor() and major() macros instead | |
183 | of our own bitmask implementation. This should be safe for | |
184 | when the major/minor namespace will migrate to 32 bits. | |
185 | Thanks to Zhang Jun <zhangjun@nanjing-fnst.com> for reporting | |
186 | the bug. | |
187 | ||
188 | 6. Made explicit in the dump man page that dump will not create | |
189 | a remote file, it will only write to an already existing one. | |
190 | ||
191 | 7. Another try at making size estimates better again. | |
192 | ||
193 | 8. Put back the inconditional running of the end-of-tape | |
194 | script which was changed in 0.434 to be run only when -M | |
195 | or multiple -f were NOT specified. Some users rely on this | |
196 | feature even when it is combined with -M/-f. | |
197 | ||
198 | 9. Fixed restore when restoring huge backups (where rstdir... | |
199 | temporary files are over 2GB). Thanks to | |
200 | Raphael Jaffey <rjaffey@artic.edu> for reporting this, | |
201 | debugging the issue and making the patch. | |
202 | ||
203 | 10. Made restore understand FreeBSD UFS2 tapes. Thanks to | |
204 | David <vrtin@users.sourceforge.net> for submitting the bug | |
205 | and providing a test case. | |
206 | ||
207 | 11. Made dump work with an arbitrary integer level (no more 10 | |
208 | levels only limitation). Thanks to Matthew | |
209 | <msvincen@midway.uchicago.edu> for the patch. | |
210 | ||
211 | Changes between versions 0.4b34 and 0.4b35 (released December 21, 2003) | |
212 | ======================================================================= | |
213 | ||
214 | 1. Added a note in the dump man page saying that the default | |
215 | blocksize can be 32 if -d is used with a high density argument. | |
216 | Thanks to Antonios Christofides <A.Christofides@itia.ntua.gr> | |
217 | for the patch. | |
218 | ||
219 | 2. Fixed configure to correctly understand CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, | |
220 | LDFLAGS environment variables. Thanks to Arcady Genkin | |
221 | <antipode@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
222 | ||
223 | 3. Made -e/-E options of dump accept an unlimited number of inodes | |
224 | to be excluded, rather than a hardcoded maximum. Thanks to | |
225 | Dietrich Rothe <d-rothe@users.sourceforge.net> for the patch. | |
226 | ||
227 | 4. Updated the autoconf system to 2.50. Forced the -D_BSD_SOURCE | |
228 | and -D_USE_BSD_SIGNAL defines in configure in order to solve | |
229 | 64bit build problems because quad_t is redifined with a | |
230 | different signature. Thanks to Mike Harris <mharris@redhat.com> | |
231 | for reporting this bug. | |
232 | ||
233 | 5. Made restore build on Solaris, making possible to | |
234 | restore Linux's "enhanced" tapes. Thanks to Uwe Gohlke | |
235 | <uwe@ugsoft.de> for the patch. | |
236 | ||
237 | 6. Made an extension in the dump tape format capable of saving | |
238 | MacOSX specific inode extensions. Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de> | |
239 | wrote the extension and contributed the restore code back | |
240 | into this codebase. The same extension mechanism will be | |
241 | used in the future to save ACLs... | |
242 | ||
243 | 7. Made rmt work correctly with regard to QFA and local/remote | |
244 | files and tapes. The remote access will however work only | |
245 | when the dump provided rmt version is used. If you want to | |
246 | use another rmt server, please do not use the QFA feature. | |
247 | Thanks to Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de> for the patch. | |
248 | ||
249 | Changes between versions 0.4b33 and 0.4b34 (released April 18, 2003) | |
250 | ==================================================================== | |
251 | ||
252 | 1. Fixed the INSTALL file to reflect the actual install paths. | |
253 | Thanks to David Ronis <ronis@ronispc.chem.mcgill.ca> for | |
254 | reporting the bug. | |
255 | ||
256 | 2. Fixed the configure script to only check for headers presence | |
257 | instead of trying to compile them. This should fix issues | |
258 | with old build environments. Thanks to Kari Lempiainen | |
259 | <kari@funky.pp.fi> for reporting the bug. | |
260 | ||
261 | 3. Fixed restore to correctly ignore sockets when comparing | |
262 | a dump (as socket cannot be properly restored anyway). Thanks | |
263 | to Gunther Reiszig <gunther@mit.edu> for reporting the bug. | |
264 | ||
265 | 4. Fixed restore to correctly access the archive file (-A argument) | |
266 | even when using a remote tape. Thanks to Fabrice Bellet | |
267 | <fabrice@bellet.info> for reporting the bug. | |
268 | ||
269 | 5. Fixed (again) handling of long (largefile) seeks in rmt. | |
270 | Thanks to Fabrice Bellet <fabrice@bellet.info> for reporting | |
271 | the bug. | |
272 | ||
273 | 6. Fixed restore corner case when dealing with large block sizes | |
274 | dump is able to write now (-b 1024). Thanks to Fabrice Bellet | |
275 | <fabrice@bellet.info> for reporting the bug. | |
276 | ||
277 | 7. Fixed a bug preventing dump to access a filesystem having | |
278 | a label exactly 16 bytes in length. Thanks to <minduni@ti-edu.ch> | |
279 | for reporting the bug. | |
280 | ||
281 | 8. Made dump store dump dates using explicit timezones, fixing a | |
282 | problem with incremental dumps if the timezone is modified | |
283 | between the dumps. Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for | |
284 | the bug report and the patch. | |
285 | ||
286 | 9. Fixed a bug encountered when dumping individual files (not full | |
287 | filesystems or directories) and dangling symbolic links happen | |
288 | to be in the list of files. For as far as dump is concerned, | |
289 | dangling symbolic links are allowed, and are dumped as is. | |
290 | Thanks to Jin-su Ahn <jsahn@ee.snu.ac.kr> for reporting the | |
291 | bug and providing the fix. | |
292 | ||
293 | 10. Fixed open and creation modes and permissions for QFA and | |
294 | table-of-contents files in dump and restore. Thanks to | |
295 | Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch. | |
296 | ||
297 | 11. Fixed the archive file descriptor handling enabling it to be 0. | |
298 | This can happen in some cases when shell redirections are used. | |
299 | Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch. | |
300 | ||
301 | 12. Delayed the opening of archive file until after suid had been | |
302 | dropped (fixing a possible security issue if dump is suid). | |
303 | Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch. | |
304 | ||
305 | 13. Fixed the 'S' command handling in the rmt client part. | |
306 | Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch. | |
307 | ||
308 | 14. Modified the end-of-tape script handling to print out statistics | |
309 | (and stop the timer) before launching the eot script. Also, the eot | |
310 | script does not get run anymore when using -M (which makes sense) or | |
311 | when multiple tapes are listed on the command line | |
312 | (-f tape0,tape1,tapen) (which also makes sense). | |
313 | Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch. | |
314 | ||
315 | 15. Relicensed dump/restore under the 'revised' BSD license, as per | |
316 | ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change. | |
317 | ||
318 | 16. Added LZO compression to dump. This new compression method has | |
319 | the advantage of being super fast, thus not killing tape streaming | |
320 | on slow machines. Thanks to Helmut Jarausch | |
321 | <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de> for the patch and to | |
322 | Markus Oberhumer <markus@oberhumer.com> for giving special permission | |
323 | to include his miniLZO project (GPL licensed) in dump/restore. | |
324 | ||
325 | 17. Some small buffer overruns fixes in rmt. Thanks to Antonomasia | |
326 | <ant@notatla.demon.co.uk> for reporting the bugs. | |
327 | ||
328 | 18. Added a special rmt version which can do encryption when writing | |
329 | to tape. Read examples/encrypted_rmt/README for details on | |
330 | how to enable and configure it. Thanks to Ken Lalonde | |
331 | <ken@globalremit.com> for the patch. | |
332 | ||
333 | 19. Made dump work with 2.5 kernel end of tape early warning semantics. | |
334 | Thanks to Kai Makisara <Kai.Makisara@kolumbus.fi> for the patch. | |
335 | ||
336 | 20. Fixed a bug which caused dump -w|-W not to work anymore, because | |
337 | the fs_freq and fs_passno fields in /etc/mtab are always set | |
338 | to 0 0. Thanks to Trent Piepho <xyzzy@speakeasy.org> for | |
339 | reporting the bug. | |
340 | ||
341 | Changes between versions 0.4b32 and 0.4b33 (released February 10, 2003) | |
342 | ======================================================================= | |
343 | ||
344 | 1. Added a note in the restore man page clarifying the question | |
345 | 'set the permissions on the current directory ?' asked by | |
346 | restore at the end of treatment in -i and -x modes. | |
347 | ||
348 | 2. Fixed the endianess issues when reading compressed tapes. | |
349 | Thanks to Dark Force <daq4th@users.sourceforge.net> for | |
350 | reporting this bug and providing test cases. | |
351 | ||
352 | 3. Fixed the "ACL won't be dumped" warning message (which showed | |
353 | an extra, unrelated error message). Thanks to Dragan Krnic | |
354 | <dkrnic@lycos.com> for reporting this bug. | |
355 | ||
356 | 4. Made dump look first into /etc/mtab, then into /etc/fstab | |
357 | when searching for filesystem paths. Also fixed some problems | |
358 | caused by binding mounts or multiple block device mounts. | |
359 | Thanks to Matus Uhlar <uhlar@fantomas.sk>, Elliott Mitchell | |
360 | <ehem@m5p.com>, Greg Edwards <gedwards@users.sourceforge.net>, | |
361 | Brian Hoy <brian.hoy@opus.co.nz>. (fixes Debian bugs #147086 | |
362 | and #160305, Sourceforge bugs #618699 and #679832). | |
363 | ||
364 | 5. Made dump's -I option accept the value '0' meaning all the | |
365 | read errors will be ignored. This can be useful when running | |
366 | dump from unattended sessions (like cron jobs). Thanks to | |
367 | John I Wang <jiwang@users.sourceforge.net> for the suggestion. | |
368 | ||
369 | 6. Fixed the output of dump to indicate 'blocks' instead of | |
370 | 'tape blocks' in the various messages (blocks are always | |
371 | 1 Kilobyte, tape blocks are 1 BK * '-b' argument), and | |
372 | made it clearly print the current blocksize at the start of | |
373 | a dump. Thanks to Michal Szymanski <msz@astrouw.edu.pl> for | |
374 | the suggestions. | |
375 | ||
376 | 7. Made rmt understand long (largefiles) seeks. | |
377 | ||
378 | 8. Fixed build with very old versions of libext2fs, where | |
379 | EXT2_FT_* constants were undefined. | |
380 | ||
381 | 9. Made dump accept the dumpdates path on the command line | |
382 | (-D file option) instead of using only the hardcoded one. | |
383 | Thanks to Piete Brooks <pb22@users.sourceforge.net> for the | |
384 | suggestion. | |
385 | ||
386 | 10. Enabled rmt, LFS, readline, QFA options by default in | |
387 | ./configure. Updated the configure process (new versions | |
388 | of config.guess, config.sub etc). | |
389 | ||
390 | Changes between versions 0.4b31 and 0.4b32 (released November 15, 2002) | |
391 | ======================================================================= | |
392 | ||
393 | 1. Changed dump to use fcntl(F_SETLK) style locking instead | |
394 | of flock() when locking the dumpdates file. With the old | |
395 | locking scheme, a local user having read rights on the | |
396 | dumpdates file could be able to do a Denial of Service attack | |
397 | on dump. In order to lock the dumpdates file with the new | |
398 | scheme, the user would need to have write access on the file. | |
399 | Thanks to Richard Johnson <Richard.Johnson3@ey.com> for | |
400 | reporting the bug (originally a bugtraq post). | |
401 | ||
402 | 2. Fixed interactive 'ls' which caused spurious errors warnings | |
403 | about 'undefined filetypes' detected. Thanks to Jorgen Ostling | |
404 | <jorgen_ostling@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting this | |
405 | bug. | |
406 | ||
407 | 3. Fixed dump's estimate when dealing with sparse inodes. | |
408 | ||
409 | 4. Modified dump to allow setting a blocksize bigger than 32kB | |
410 | (raised the limit to 1024kB), because newer hardware needs | |
411 | this for proper operation. Thanks to Dirk Traenapp | |
412 | <dtraenapp@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting this. | |
413 | ||
414 | 5. Fixed a bug causing Dump to stop and report an error if an | |
415 | inode number in the exclude file was followed by some amount | |
416 | of whitespace. Thanks to Jeffrey Sofferin | |
417 | <sofferin@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting this bug. | |
418 | ||
419 | 6. Fixed a bug which caused restore, in some particular cases, | |
420 | to ask some 'scary' questions and leave a bunch of RSTTMP | |
421 | directories behind when restoring incremental tapes. Thanks | |
422 | to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for reporting this bug and | |
423 | providing the test cases. | |
424 | ||
425 | 7. Changed the wording when inodes are excluded from dump: | |
426 | replaced 'Added inode 7 to exclude list' with | |
427 | 'Excluding inode 7 (resize inode) from dump', as suggested | |
428 | by Elliott Mitchell <ehem@m5p.com> in a Debian bug report. | |

430 | Changes between versions 0.4b30 and 0.4b31 (released July 30, 2002) | |
431 | =================================================================== | |
432 | ||
433 | 1. Fixed rmt open flags transmission (GNU's symbolic syntax over | |
434 | rmt) which I broke in 0.4b29. Thanks to Eros Albertazzi | |
435 | <eros@lamel.bo.cnr.it> for reporting the bug. | |
436 | ||
437 | Changes between versions 0.4b29 and 0.4b30 (released July 25, 2002) | |
438 | =================================================================== | |
439 | ||
440 | 1. Made dump print out the ext2 logical block number in case of a read | |
441 | error, which can be given as an argument to debugfs' ncheck command, | |
442 | in order to find out the affected inode. Added note about this | |
443 | usage in dump's man page. | |
444 | ||
445 | 2. Fixed a problem in restore when reading tapes written on big | |
446 | endian machines with very old versions of dump. The patch was | |
447 | contributed by George Helffrich <george@geology.bristol.ac.uk>. | |
448 | ||
449 | 3. Fixed the tape length calculation when using large tapes | |
450 | and compression. Thanks to Georg Lippold | |
451 | <g_lippold@sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
452 | ||
453 | 4. Added a new set of examples in dump_on_cd_2 directory, based | |
454 | on dump_on_cd examples but somewhat enhanced, supporting DVD | |
455 | media, and localized in english and german. Thanks to | |
456 | Georg Lippold <g_lippold@sourceforge.net> for the new scripts. | |
457 | ||
458 | 5. Made dump save 32 bit UID/GID. Internally, this was achieved | |
459 | by switching from the old BSD inode format to the new BSD | |
460 | inode format, which means that the tape format was changed. | |
461 | However, since all restore versions out there should | |
462 | transparently support both inode formats, the change should | |
463 | have no side effects. Thanks to John Yu <jky@cs.bu.edu> for | |
464 | reporting the bug. | |
465 | ||
466 | 6. Fixed a lot of warnings in the code shown when compiling | |
467 | with 'gcc -W'. Thanks to Matthias Andree | |
468 | <matthias.andree@stud.uni-dortmund.de> for reporting this. | |
469 | ||
470 | 7. Fixed a small markup bug in the dump man page. Thanks to | |
471 | Eric S. Raymond <esr@minx.thyrsus.com> for submitting the | |
472 | patch. | |
473 | ||
474 | 8. Rewrote entirely the man pages using the tmac.an macro | |
475 | package (Linux man page format) instead of the original BSD | |
476 | format. They should be now cleaner and easier to modify. | |
477 | ||
478 | Changes between versions 0.4b28 and 0.4b29 (released June 8, 2002) | |
479 | ================================================================== | |
480 | ||
481 | 1. Fixed a problem in the rmt ioctl command, where ioctl's issued from | |
482 | non Linux clients were misinterpreted. The description of the problem | |
483 | (incompatible numbering in Linux mtio opcodes) is documented at | |
484 | ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/star/README.mtio . Thanks to | |
