fsarchiver: Filesystem Archiver for Linux [http://www.fsarchiver.org]
=====================================================================
* 0.6.1 (2009-10-04):
	- New encryption implementation was not thread-safe (broken when option -j was used)
	- Dropped openssl support (this code was disabled in fsarchiver-0.6.0 anyway)
* 0.6.0 (2009-09-27):
	- Debianized fsarchiver (added the debian directory necessary to build the debian package)
	- Rewrote the encryption support using libgcrypt instead of openssl (fix licensing issues)
	- Added the manpage written by Ilya Barygin (it will be installed by "make install")
* 0.5.9 (2009-08-29):
	- Fixed 'fsarchiver probe' which ignored /dev/dm-0 (first device mapper disk)
	- It now displays NTFS uuids in the archive information ("fsarchive archinfo archive.fsa")
	- Support for "system.ntfs_times" attribute supported by ntfs-3g >= 2009.4.4AR.17
	- Support for "system.ntfs_dos_name" attribute supported by ntfs-3g >= 2009.4.4AR.17
	- Support for "user.ntfs.efsinfo" attribute which allows to copy and restore encrypted files
	- Improved detection for ntfs-3g-AR and print a more explicit message if inappropriate version found
	- Added info about the minimum fsarchiver version required in the archive to allow doing checks at restfs
	- Added FSYSHEADKEY_MOUNTINFO in the fsheader to allow changing the ntfs-3g streams_interface in the future
* 0.5.8 (2009-07-12):
	- Preserve UUID with ntfs filesystems (64bit number written in boot sector at offset 0x48)
	- Fixed "fsarchiver probe": partitions having a 0 at the end of their number were ignored
	- Added distributions support files in the sources (ebuild script for gentoo, spec for rpm)
	- Using md5.c from coreutils-6.9 to avoid a licensing issue (this one is under GPL-v2)
* 0.5.7 (2009-06-01):
	- Added detection of partitions with no known filesystem in "fsarchive probe"
* 0.5.6 (2009-05-19):
	- Fixed execution of command having an argument with spaces (restfs was broken when the fs label had spaces)
	- Better error message when attempting to save an ntfs filesystem which is already mounted with ntfs-3g
* 0.5.5 (2009-05-15):
	- Fixed segfault when the decompression function fail
	- Fixed decompression problems with lzma due to memory limit to low
* 0.5.4 (2009-05-07):
	- Fixed problems in the management of SIGINT when the Ctrl+C is pressed to abort
	- Fixed warning about xattr attributes being too large when the size returned is -1
	- Bug fix: fuse filesystem were not unmounted correctly after a fatal error
* 0.5.3 (2009-05-04):
	- Support for extended attributes up to 64k (the size was limited to 1024 bytes)
	- The file header is only copied if open64() is successful (prevents header with no data)
	- Management of files which are truncated during a live-backup (padding with zeros)
	- Test to make sure it cannot archive the archive itself during a live-backup
	- Improved error management when there are problems on files or attributes in create.c
* 0.5.2 (2009-04-27):
	- Copy the contents of /dev/ during a live-backup (option -A used) else /dev/console missing at reboot
	- Bug fix: archive corruption when a file attribute was empty (eg: "user.encryptable" on ntfs may be empty)
* 0.5.1 (2009-04-19):
	- Option -o (overwrite) was broken when the archive already exists (introduced in 0.5.0)
	- Better management of errors (no space left on device) when an archive is extracted
	- Fixed errors in fsaprintf arguments thanks to __attribute__ ((format (printf, x, y)));
	- Print statistics about success and errors at the end of an operation
* 0.5.0 (2009-04-18):
	- Final archive file format is now used (it's compatible with fsarchiver >= 0.4.4)

	- Fixed compilation errors when fsarchiver is configured with --disable-crypto
	- Fixed problems when attributes stored in dico are empty
* 0.4.7 (2009-03-29):
	- The mount-points directories are now archived during a live-backup (important for /dev, /proc, /sys)
	- Better management of corrupt archive files: allow to continue the restoration on the next valid file found
	- Bug fix: Ignore devices that are cached by blkid in "fsarchive probe" (cdrom devices that do not exist were shown)
	- Bug fix: "fsarchiver probe" detected ext4 filesystem as ext3 when libblkid < 1.41 (it's part of e2fsprogs)
	- Bug fix: Fixed minor memory leak in "fsarchiver probe" by calling blkid_put_cache() to free the dynamic memory
	- Bug fix: Fixed memory error (invalid free) when a corrupt data block is found in the archive (bad checksum)
	- Bug fix: Show and error message and exit instead of waiting when the required fstools are not installed
	- Bug fix: fixed potential crash in thread_comp when aborting a restoration process because of an error
* 0.4.6 (2009-03-24):
	- Bug fix: fixed various memory leaks reported by valgrind (dictionaries structures were sometimes not freed)
	- Internal changes: replaced most "struct" with "typedef struct", refactoring code in create.c
* 0.4.5 (2009-03-15):
	- Bug fix: empty files must not be copied with small files, and there is no need to write the checksum

	- Bug fix: show all the restored files at restfs including the small files which are compressed in a single block
* 0.4.4 (2009-03-01):
	- Added optimized management of small files (several small files data in a single compressed block)
	- Bug fix: only umount the partitions that have been mounted by fsarchiver at the end of an operation
	- Option '-a' allows users to run savefs on a mounted partition when the mount options for acl/xattr are not used

	- The help screen now shows which optional features have been enabled at compilation time
	- Added support for encryption using openssl and blowfish. it can be disabled at compilation
	- Added an objectid to each filesystem object (file, link, directory, ...) and write it in archive
* 0.3.5 (2009-01-21):
