+ to get and set the file attributes.
+29Oct08
+kes Apply pane freezing during updates patch from Riccardo Ghetta.
+kes Rework next_vol and autoprune a bit due to failure in
+ recycle-test. prune_volumes() now returns no status,

+kes Modify check_if_volume_valid_or_recyclable to reject a
+ volume with Recycle set off.
+kes Modify prune_volumes() to continue if volume Recycle is off
+ or if the volume has expired. Add more debug.
+28Oct08
+kes Fix bug #1046 VolumeToCatalog incorrectly reports mounted
+ filesystems as missing on the Volume.
+kes Rewrite the set_jcr_job_status() code to include job status
+ priorities so that more important status changes occur but
+ lower priority status changes will not overwrite something
+ more serious. This could possibly cause reporting incorrect status
+ reporting in some cases. More testing is needed to ensure
+ I have the right priorities. This vastly simplifies the previous
+ contorted logic.
+ Verify Diff status should now be correctly reported, whereas it
+ was previously lost.
+kes Reduce some debug output.
+kes Apply Joao's patch to SQLite tables to make chars work.
+27Oct08
+ebl Fix #1175 About update slots that don't reset InChanger flag when
+ slot is empty.
+ebl Fix #1173 where prune_volume() returns a volume from the scratch.
25Oct08
+kes Remove jobq.c constraint that read and write SD must be
+ different. This may lead to more deadlocks in the SD,
+ but they should be resolved there.
kes Ensure that job report is always printed even if job is failed
in the director.
kes Don't print job report twice for failed VBackup jobs.
kes Fix typo in console Makefile.in

structure to keep track of whether or not the plugin is disabled.
kes Apply FileIndex fix for plugin name stream suggested by James.
kes List plugins in FD status report when debug > 0.
