Fixed the permissions of a newly created QFA file by dump. + +2. Cleaned up the source of dump (the external variables + definition was a complete mess, making possible to have + objects overlap). + +3. Fixed restore to use the full tape volume path when doing + a compare (since it changes the working directory to the + filesystem being compared in the process). + +4. Added the -q option to dump which makes dump abort + whenever it needs operator attention. It should be + easier to use dump in scripts with this option. + +5. Detect the use of incompatible options to dump and + refuse them (like -a and -B options together). + +6. Added bzip2 compression to dump/restore (use option -j level + to select it). Note that you will need a restore version + >= 0.4b24 in order to restore a bzip2 compressed dump. + The same warning as for the zlib compression applies: + the tape format of a bzip2 dump is not compatible with the + original BSD tape format. + +7. Fixed a overflow problem in dump corrupting the dump when + very large files were encountered.

Changed the -B option of dump to limit the size of _compressed_ output per volume if compression is on. Patch contributed by Helmut Jarausch - . + . Note however that, since + it is impossible to predict the size of the compressed + data before doing the compression, the -B limit is a bit + conservative. 7. Fixed a bug in reading the operator typed file/tape path for the next volume in restore. +8. Implemented a "-F script" option to restore which permits the + user to specify a script which will be launched at the + beginning of each tape, useful for automatic programming of + tape changers for example. See the restore man page for the + script parameters and return codes. + +9. Small fix for the QFA routines provided by Uwe Gohlke + , and some recommendations for QFA uses in + the man pages. + +10. Fixed the multivolume restoring where making a mistake + to the 'Mount next tape' prompt caused several blocks to + be lost. + +11. Enhanced the -e option of dump to take as a parameter a + comma separated list of inode numbers. + +12. Added the -E option to dump which specify a file containing + inode numbers to exclude from the dump. + +13.
