Fixed the INSTALL file to reflect the actual install paths. + Thanks to David Ronis for + reporting the bug. + +2. Fixed the configure script to only check for headers presence + instead of trying to compile them. This should fix issues + with old build environments. Thanks to Kari Lempiainen + for reporting the bug. + +3. Fixed restore to correctly ignore sockets when comparing + a dump (as socket cannot be properly restored anyway). Thanks + to Gunther Reiszig for reporting the bug. + +4. Fixed restore to correctly access the archive file (-A argument) + even when using a remote tape. Thanks to Fabrice Bellet + for reporting the bug. + +5. Fixed (again) handling of long (largefile) seeks in rmt. + Thanks to Fabrice Bellet for reporting + the bug. + +Changes between versions 0.4b32 and 0.4b33 (released February 10, 2003) +======================================================================= + +1. Added a note in the restore man page clarifying the question + 'set the permissions on the current directory ?' asked by + restore at the end of treatment in -i and -x modes. + +2. Fixed the endianess issues when reading compressed tapes. + Thanks to Dark Force for + reporting this bug and providing test cases. + +3. Fixed the "ACL won't be dumped" warning message (which showed + an extra, unrelated error message). Thanks to Dragan Krnic + for reporting this bug. + +4. Made dump look first into /etc/mtab, then into /etc/fstab + when searching for filesystem paths. Also fixed some problems + caused by binding mounts or multiple block device mounts. + Thanks to Matus Uhlar , Elliott Mitchell + , Greg Edwards , + Brian Hoy . (fixes Debian bugs #147086 + and #160305, Sourceforge bugs #618699 and #679832). + +5. Made dump's -I option accept the value '0' meaning all the + read errors will be ignored. This can be useful when running + dump from unattended sessions (like cron jobs). Thanks to + John I Wang for the suggestion. + +6. Fixed the output of dump to indicate 'blocks' instead of + 'tape blocks' in the various messages (blocks are always + 1 Kilobyte, tape blocks are 1 BK * '-b' argument), and + made it clearly print the current blocksize at the start of + a dump. Thanks to Michal Szymanski for + the suggestions. + +7. Made rmt understand long (largefiles) seeks. + +8. Fixed build with very old versions of libext2fs, where + EXT2_FT_* constants were undefined. + +9. Made dump accept the dumpdates path on the command line + (-D file option) instead of using only the hardcoded one. + Thanks to Piete Brooks for the + suggestion. + +10. Enabled rmt, LFS, readline, QFA options by default in + ./configure. Updated the configure process (new versions + of config.guess, config.sub etc). + +Changes between versions 0.4b31 and 0.4b32 (released November 15, 2002) +======================================================================= + +1. Changed dump to use fcntl(F_SETLK) style locking instead + of flock() when locking the dumpdates file. With the old + locking scheme, a local user having read rights on the + dumpdates file could be able to do a Denial of Service attack + on dump. In order to lock the dumpdates file with the new + scheme, the user would need to have write access on the file. + Thanks to Richard Johnson for + reporting the bug (originally a bugtraq post). + +2. Fixed interactive 'ls' which caused spurious errors warnings + about 'undefined filetypes' detected. Thanks to Jorgen Ostling + for reporting this + bug. + +3. Fixed dump's estimate when dealing with sparse inodes. + +4. Modified dump to allow setting a blocksize bigger than 32kB + (raised the limit to 1024kB), because newer hardware needs + this for proper operation. Thanks to Dirk Traenapp + for reporting this. + +5. Fixed a bug causing Dump to stop and report an error if an + inode number in the exclude file was followed by some amount + of whitespace. Thanks to Jeffrey Sofferin + for reporting this bug. + +6. Fixed a bug which caused restore, in some particular cases, + to ask some 'scary' questions and leave a bunch of RSTTMP + directories behind when restoring incremental tapes. Thanks + to Philippe Troin for reporting this bug and + providing the test cases. + +7. Changed the wording when inodes are excluded from dump: + replaced 'Added inode 7 to exclude list' with + 'Excluding inode 7 (resize inode) from dump', as suggested + by Elliott Mitchell in a Debian bug report. + +Changes between versions 0.4b30 and 0.4b31 (released July 30, 2002) +=================================================================== + +1. Fixed rmt open flags transmission (GNU's symbolic syntax over + rmt) which I broke in 0.4b29. Thanks to Eros Albertazzi + for reporting the bug. + +Changes between versions 0.4b29 and 0.4b30 (released July 25, 2002) +=================================================================== 1. Made dump print out the ext2 logical block number in case of a read error, which can be given as an argument to debugfs' ncheck command,
