Changes between versions 0.4b42 and 0.4b43 (released ?????????????)
===================================================================
(this also fixes a build failure when selinux libraries are
not installed).
+4. Fix restoration of extended attributes of fifos and device nodes.
+ Thanks to Igor Zhbanov <izh1979@gmail.com> for the bug report.
+
+5. Don't attempt to set extended attributes on files that were not
+ extracted in 'restore -N' mode. Thanks to Jan Görig
+ <jgorig@users.sourceforge.net> for the patch.
+
+6. Make the dump man page explicit about ext4 support.
+
+7. Fix a bug in dump which caused EA entries to be unrecognizable by
+ restore in some corner cases. Add a workaround to restore making
+ it able to properly deal with those corrupted EA entries. Thanks
+ to John Austin <jaustin1@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting
+ the bug.
+
+8. Fix some issues when restoring a dump which was generated using
+ exclusion patterns (either via -e or via the nodump attribute)
+ (see the Debian bug #574667 for details. Thanks to Frédéric
+ Brière <fbriere@fbriere.net> for the bug report and the associated
+ patch.
+
+9. Fix progress/estimated blocks display in dump when doing really
+ huge backups. Thanks to Steve Bonds <sbonds@users.sourceforge.net>
+ for the bug report and tests. (Sourceforge bug #2987758)
+
+10. Improve level 1 dump speed by rearanging the "mapdirs" code.
+ Thanks to Andreas Kies <andikies@t-online.de> for finding the
+ bottleneck and sending a patch (Sourceforge bug #2998119).
+
+11. Use only ctime in order to compare newness instead of both
+ ctime and mtime. This should both speed up dumping time and
+ correct some side-effect bugs (like dumping files with an mtime
+ in the future in every incremental backup). Thanks to
+ Kieran Clancy <codebeard@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the
+ bug (Sourceforge bug #2999207).
+
+12. Extract dumped UNIX sockets as dummy files, instead of not
+ restoring them at all. This will correct some warnings during
+ the restoration of incrementals, if the inodes previously occupied
+ by sockets gets reused by other files. See Sourceforge bug
+ #3007216 for details.
