+
+Release Version 2.4.3
+27Oct08

+ that don't reset InChanger flag when slot is empty.
+10Oct08
+ebl Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel

+02Oct08
+ebl Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
+24Sep08

+ replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
+08Sep08
+kes Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog

+ This closes bug #1129.
+
+Release Version 2.4.2
+26Jul08
+kes When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
+ and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
+ significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
+24Jul08
+kes Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
+ do_load. It is much more logical that way.
+kes Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
+ reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
+ zapped when the wrong volume is mounted.
+ This should fix bug #1126 -- During multiple tape restore, Bacula
+ does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
+23Jul08
+kes Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
+ This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
+kes Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.

+kes Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
+22Jul08

+ at least once before asking for operator intervention.
+kes Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code.
+
+Release Version 2.4.1
+07Jul08
+kes Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
+06Jul08
+kes Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
+kes Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
+ a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
+ would occasionally not be restored.
+05Jul08
+kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
+ a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
+kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
+ bug #1117.
+kes Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
+ fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
Release Beta version 2.4.1-b2
04Jul08
kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
27Jun08
kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
- conceptial change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
+ conceptual change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
is read on that drive.
