+Changes between versions 0.4b5 and 0.4b6
+========================================
+
+1.     Integrated multiple patches from RedHat, Debian and SuSE:
+
+       - tweak dump/itime.c to not try to read dumpdates if the 'u' option 
+         isn't specified.
+       - several fixes in the man pages.
+       - update the default tape device to /dev/st0.
+       - many updates for Linux Alpha (byte ordering, size_t etc).
+       - buffer overruns.
+       - use environment variable for TMPDIR (instead of /tmp).
+       - use sigjmp_buf instead of jmp_buf (RedHat bug #3260).
+       - workaround egcs bug (RedHat bugs #4281 and #2989).
+       - wire $(OPT) throughout Makefile's.
+
+2.     Fix some compile warnings, prototype all functions.
+
+3.     Use glibc err/glob instead of internal compatibility
+       routines (only if available).
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b4 and 0.4b5
+========================================
+
+1.     Integrated the changes from FreeBSD-3.1-RELEASE
+       (mostly bug fixes, buffer overruns, dump has now an "automatic
+       tape length calculation" flag, dump/restore can use kerberos now
+       (this is NOT tested), use environment variables for TAPE and
+       RMT etc.).
+
+2.     Integrated three RedHat patches ("glibc", "kernel" and "bread" patches)
+
+3.     Corrected a bug in restore when using 'C' option with multi-volumes
+       tapes (files splited accros two tapes give "size changed" errors
+       when comparing).
+
+4.     Corrected the long standing bug when dumping multiple tapes.
+       This works for me, needs further testing.
