dump (0.4b47-4) unstable; urgency=medium dump now records the actual filesystem argument that it was given in /var/lib/dumpdates; that argument may not be the same as the underlying disk device but this change makes incremental backups with filesystems selected by LABEL=x or UUID=y possible without format changes to dumpdates. there is one small limitation: if you want to perform incrementals, then you must give dump the same filesystem selection parameter for all invocations (level 0 and up), or it won't find previous backups in /var/lib/dumpdates. for example, you can't mix selection by device path /dev/sdxyz with selection by UUID=whatever, regardless of whether the two identify the same physical filesystem or not. -- Alexander Zangerl Tue, 03 May 2022 15:34:16 +1000 dump (0.4b45-3) unstable; urgency=medium QFA is functional again. -- Alexander Zangerl Sun, 26 Jun 2016 00:34:49 +1000 dump (0.4b45-2) unstable; urgency=high this is an interim version with QFA (quick file access) support DISABLED; with QFA enabled dump crashes repeatably with a segfault which renders the package completely and utterly broken (see #826398). i'm resorting to this undesirable temporary featurectomy because i haven't found the root cause of that segfault yet - but version 0.4b45-1 has already made it into testing, and i clearly can't leave things as they are. to those of you relying on QFA: please bear with me for a few more days. -- Alexander Zangerl Wed, 08 Jun 2016 19:04:11 +1000
