+=================================================================
+Release 9.0.4
+This is a minor bug fix release. The main fix in this release
+is to allow SQLite3 to work.
+
+Please note: SQLite3 has been depreciated for a long time. If the
+community will step forward (as it did in this case) and prepare
+the appropriate make_sqlite3_tables and update_sqlite3_tables files,
+we can continue to leave the SQLite3 code in Bacula. However, we
+strongly urge users to update to MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL,
+which are our supported SQL databases.
+

+ - Update po files
+ - Fix SQLite3 upgrade tables script fixes bug #2306

+
+===============================================================
+
+This is a minor bug fix release, but a few of the bugs are important.
+The main items fixed are:
+
+- Postgresql should now work with Postgresql prior to 9.0
+ Note: the ssl connection feature added in 9.0 is not available on
+ postgresql servers older than 9.0 (it needs the new connection API).
+- The issues with MariaDB (reconnect variable) are now fixed
+- The problem of the btape "test" command finding a wrong number
+ of files in the append test was a bug. It is now fixed. It is
+ unlikely that it affected anything but btape.
+- The bacula-tray-monitor.deskop script is released in the scripts
+ directory.
+- We recommend that you build with libz and lzo library support (the
+ developer packages must be installed when building, and the shared
+ object libraries must be installed at run time). However we have
+ modified the code so that Bacula *should* build and run with either
+ or both libz or lzo absent.
+
+23Jul17
+ - Use Bacula in place of Libz variables so we can build with/without
+ libz and lzo
+ - Apply ideas from bug #2255 prettier status slots output
+ - Configure and install bacula-tray-monitor.desktop
+ - Fix btape test which counted files incorrectly on EOT
+ - Fix bug #2296 where Bacula would not compile with postgres 8 or older
+ - Fix bug #2294 Bacula does not build with MariaDB 10.2
+ - baculum: Fix multiple directors support
+ - baculum: Fix showing errors from the API

+
+========
+
+This is either the biggest Bacula release ever made or one of the
+biggest ones. Even without the new Aligned Volumes source code, which
+is substantial, there are over 400,000 lines of diff output between
+Release 7.4.7 and the release of 9.0.0
+
+This is a major new release with a new version number. It has been
+very thoroughly tested, but as always, please backup any previous
+version and test this version prior to putting it into production.
+
+For the most part the changes were contributed to the Bacula
+project by Bacula Systems SA and myself, but there were a number
+of other contributors that I thank.
+
+Database Update
+---------------
+This version of Bacula requires a database update. So either you or the
+installation process must apply the update_bacula_tables script. As a
+precaution, please do a database dump or run your nightly database backup
+prior to running the update script.
+
+Compatibility:
+--------------
+As always, both the Community Director and Storage daemon(s) must be upgraded
+at the same time. Any File daemon running on the same machine as a Director
+or Storage daemon must be of the same version.
+
+Older File Daemons should be compatible with the 9.0.0 Director and Storage
+daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File Daemons.
+
+Packagers:
+---------
+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
+update_bacula_tables script after having dumped the catalog to bring any
+existing catalog up to the new version needed for Bacula 9.0.0.
+
+New Features:
+-------------
+Please see the New Features chapter of the manual for documentation on
+the new features. The new features are currently only in the New Features
+chapter and have not yet been integrated into the main chapters of the
+manual.
+
+New Features (summary):
+-----------------------
+
+ - Major rewrite of the Storage daemon to: put all drivers in class
+ structures, provide better separation of core/driver code, add new
+ drivers (aligned volumes, cloud), simplifies core code, allows loadable
+ device drivers much like plugins but which are better integrated into
+ the SD.
+ - There are a number of new Bacula Systems whitepapers available on
+ www.bacula.org, and a few more will be coming in the next few months.
+ - New unique message id will be added to every message (designed but
+ not yet implemented).
