+Changes between versions 0.4b36 and 0.4b37 (released ??????????????)
+====================================================================
+
+1. Added the --enable-staticz configure option which enables
+ dump and restore to be linked with static versions of
+ libz and libbz2 (and dynamic versions of all other libraries).
+ This will make Debian users happy, because libz and libbz2
+ were the only needed libraries living in /usr, all the
+ others live in /lib. In case of system emergency, it is
+ better not to have to rely on an extra filesystem.
+ Thanks to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for the suggestion.
+
+2. Fix compilation on (at least the Linux Debian port to) AMD64.
+ (<ext2fs/ext2_types.h> defines some types (__s64 and __u64)
+ that are also defined by <linux/types.h> (<asm/types.h>) and
+ they conflict).
+
+3. Make dump's reading of the dumpdates file a bit more robust,
+ preventing dump from crashing when the dumpdates file has
+ been modified by hand.
+
+4. Fixed some offset calculations in dump code which could
+ lead to "bread lseek errors" on large filesystems. Thanks
+ to Bruce Lowekamp <lowekamp@users.sourceforge.net> for
+ reporting this bug and debugging the issue.
+
+5. Made dump use the blkid library when searching for devices
+ by label or uuid instead of dump's own routines.
+
+6. Corrected a bug in dump where a wrong LABEL=... line in
+ /etc/fstab could prevent dump from dumping unrelated
+ filesystems. Thanks to Bruce Lowekamp
+ <lowekamp@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug.
Changes between versions 0.4b35 and 0.4b36 (released April 21, 2004)
