Fix printout of the 'Connection to' message in dump/restore. + Thanks to Dale Wiles for the + bug report and its fix. + +2. Fix dump -w/-W output for filesystems having the last backup + level equal to 0. Thanks to Pascal Bouchareine + for reporting the bug. + +3. Enable restore to handle restoring onto a different SELinux + policy from the dump. Thanks to Tony Nelson + for the patch. + (see http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189845 + for details) + +4. Fix EA set failures when restoring immutable files. Thanks + to Andrew Kroeger for the patch. + +5. Fix "mode file too large" errors when restoring huge backups. + Thanks to Kenneth Porter for the bug + report. + +6. Add the ability to link against libtinfo library if present, + instead of libtermcap or libncurses libraries. Thanks to + Adam Tkac for the patch. + +7. When comparing a backup, do not consider to be an error the fact + that we encounter files created while dump was in progress. + Thanks to Kenneth Porter for the bug + report. + +8. Force '-a' to be the default value when running 'restore -C'. + Thanks to Kenneth Porter for the bug + report. + +9. Many improvements to the 'cron_dump_to_disk' example. + Thanks to Aaron S. Hawley for + the patch. + +10. Fix the QFA generation when extended attributes are backuped + along with the inodes. Prior to this fix, the entries for + some inodes may get corrupted (duplicated entries or incorrect + ones), making the QFA file unusable for repositionning in + restore. Many thanks to Kenneth Porter + for the bug report and the testing of the fix. + +11. Fix EA restoration in debug mode (Sourceforge bug #1986216). + +12. Stefan Auracher noticed that the Tower + of Hanoi backup strategy documented in the man page wasn't + actually based on the Tower of Hanoi algorithm. The man page + was updated accordingly. + +13. Fix missing level information from dump output when using + the default level (RedHat bug #493635). Thanks to Adam Tkac + for the patch. + +Changes between versions 0.4b40 and 0.4b41 (released January 2, 2006) +===================================================================== + +1. Fix restore of dumped Access Control Lists. The previous + code for EA works fine, but ACLs needed conversion from the + ext2/3 disk format to posix_acl format before restoring. + +2. Fix some issues with restoration of EA on big endian + platforms. + +3. Fix restore when the symtab is over 2GB in size. + +4. Made the directory hash indexing an optional feature, + accessible by the '-H' option of restore, and disable it + by default. + +5. Fixed dump to not include extended attributes information + in the toc (archive) file which confused restore -t. + +Changes between versions 0.4b39 and 0.4b40 (released May 2, 2005) +================================================================= + +1. Changed restore to emit warnings (instead of emitting a fatal + error) if a file (or a directory) is unavailable for a + comparision (if the user doesn't have the necessary permissions + to access it for example). Thanks to Kenneth Porter + for the bug report. + +2. Re-done the 'do not save directory entries to non-dumped inodes + (excluded from dump)' feature. The previous implementation + worked well for excluded directories but not for regular files. + Thanks to Kenneth Porter for the bug + report. + +3. Fixed a bug in dump where the tape size was miscalculated when + the user used -d/-s to specify the tape characteristics. Thanks + to Philip Goisman for reporting + the bug. + +4. Fixed another bug introduced in restore with the hashtree + implementation. This one caused restore to stop saying + "removenode: non-empty directory" in some cases. + +5. Added support for dumping and restoring ext2/3 extended + attributes (EA), like the access control lists (ACL) or + the security labels used by SELinux. + +Changes between versions 0.4b38 and 0.4b39 (released January 21, 2005) +====================================================================== + 1. The newly added dump_on_cd_3 example was buggy, replace it with an updated version from Andrew Basterfield .
