Hello, This morning I released the source tar files and the Win32 binary installer for version 2.2.7 to the Bacula release section of Source Forge.
This is an important bug fix update to version 2.2.6. >From the ReleaseNotes: Version 2.2.7 has several new features and several important bug fixes since version 2.2.6: - It fixes bugs: 1009, 1022, 1024, 1019, 1012, 1021, 1020 1007, 1008. For more details, please see the technotes-2.1 file. - Fixed a seg fault reported by Frank Sweetser that depended on exact path lengths, but the problem was in bsnprintf.c - Double quoting include filenames (@xxx) in Bacula conf files is now possible, thanks to a patch by Michael Stapelberg. - You can pipe input to include filenames (@|prog) by using a vertical bar, thanks to the above patch. - A daylight savings time bug in the Win32 bsmpt was fixed by a patch from Nerijus Baliunas. - Marc Cousins submitted a patch that permits building the PostgreSQL driver with version 8.3. - The configure option --archivedir has been changed to --with-archivedir For the future: There still remain a few open bugs, most notably still some problems with multiple drive autochangers in version 2.2.x. Since the next major release will be in June 2008 at the earliest, I have backported the SVN trunk code which fixes all reproducible multiple drive problems to version 2.2.7. Once this patch has been well tested (in a few weeks), we will release a version 2.2.8 (hopeful the last of the 2.2 series). The patch is already included in the 2.2.7 release but not applied, and it can be found in the file patches/2.2.7-reserve.patch. If you wish to try this patch, please read the instructions at the top of the patch file and pay careful attention to the need for the -p1 option to apply it. I wish everyone a Happy New Year, Kern ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
