Technical notes on version 2.2
General:
+14Dec07
+kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
+ that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
+ and also allows piping input by having the first character
+ be a vertical bar (|).
+kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
+ that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
+kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
+ by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
+13Dec07
+kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
+ Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
+10Dec07
+kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
+ jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
+ 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
+08Dec07
+kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
+ that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3. Also fix
+ misuse of %x with pointer (should be %p).
+03Dec07
+kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
+ It fixes bug #1022.
+kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
+ job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
+02Dec07
+kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
+ volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
+ bug #1019.
+30Nov07
+kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
+ --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
+ test builds.
+kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
+ of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
+29Nov07
+ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
+ one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
+ written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
+ and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
+27Nov07
+kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
+25Nov07
+kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
+ JS_AttrInsterting. It fixes bug #1021.
+kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
+ Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
+ due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
+ ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
+ This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
+ qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
+kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
+ displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug 1007, but has been
+ reported not to work.
+14Nov07
+kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
+ maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
+ This patch fixes bug #1008.

+09Nov07
+kes Get fix for joblist bug in bat from trunk.
+04Nov07
+kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from

+ seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
+02Nov07
+kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
+ interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
+ the drive.

+22Oct07

+ The details are included in the notes in this file.
+28Sep07
+kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
+ messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
+ simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
+ MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
+ (upper/lower) differences.
+kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
+ This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
+ when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
+ to bug #935 and possibly #903.
+27Sep07
+kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
+ wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
+ predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
