Subject: [Dump-announce] Dump/restore 0.4b40 released.
Hi everybody,
A new version of dump/restore, the Linux ext2/ext3 filesystem backup
utilities has been released today.
This release features a few bug fixes and support for ext2/ext3
extended attributes (EA). For additionnal details, see the full
ChangeLog below.
You can download the new version at dump/restore's homepage:
http://dump.sourceforge.net
Enjoy,
Stelian.
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
<shiva(a)sewingwitch.com> 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 <shiva(a)sewingwitch.com> 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 <goisman(a)physics.arizona.edu> 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.
