daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File Daemons.
-New features and changes:

+There are a good number of new binaries (e.g. bbconsjson, bdirjson,
+bfdjson, and bsdjson) to install; a new tapealert script file that should
+be installed; and some new shared objects (e.g. libbacsd). The
+dvd-handler script has been removed. Note also to run the
