+==================   Warning !!!!!! ==========================
+This BETA release of Bacula 2.5.x development code uses libtool
+to generate the Bacula libraries as shared objects rather than
+being directly linked in as in prior versions.  This means that
+the Bacula shared objects, must either be in a shared object 
+directory known to the loader or they must be in the directory
+that may be specified on the ./configure line using the
+--libdir option as:
+
+  ./configure --libdir=/full-path/dir
+
+the default /usr/lib. If --libdir is specified, there should be
+no need to modify your loader configuration provided that
+the shared objects are installed in that directory (Bacula
+does this with the make install command). The shared objects 
+that Bacula references are:
+
+libbaccfg.so
+libbacfind.so
+libbacpy.so
+libbac.so
+
+If you have problems with libtool or you wish to use the old 
+way of building static libraries, you can do so by disabling 
+libtool on the configure command line with:
+
+  ./configure --disable-libtool

 General:
+23Oct08
+kes  Integrate James Harper's Exchange Win32 plugin patch.
+kes  Apply patch from Marco van Wieringen that implements the new
+     Solaris libsec interface for ACLs so that Bacula can save and
+     restore both the new ACLs and old ACLs.
+kes  Marco's patch also corrects the file dependency generation code
+     so that it works properly both with shared libraries and static
+     libraries.
+kes  Marco's patch also includes a small cleanup of the cats Makefile
+     to remove some references to non-existent files.
+22Oct08
+kes  Modify win32 Makefiles to use full paths in most cases.
+     In particular add MAINDIR environment variable that points
+     to the main Bacula source directory.
+21Oct08
+kes  Add read volume list code to SD -- not yet used.
+kes  Add James' binutils patch
+kes  Split volume management code out of src/stored/reserve.c into
+     a new file vol_mgr.c 
+kes  Modify configure to do an automatic make clean.  This ensures
+     that any changes to ./configure options are handled correctly.
+
+Beta version 2.5.16 release:
+20Oct08
+ebl  Rename JobStat table to JobHistory
+kes  Ensure that only normally terminated jobs are migrated.
+19Oct08
+kes  Add Makefile dependency when using LIBTOOL_LINK so that any
+     change in ./configure options will be accounted for.
 18Oct08
 kes  Fix typo in the ACL patch that I overlooked.
 kes  Apply Marco's libtool include patch.
