File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: storeBackup-1.19

Notes:
Bug fix and security release

Changes:
version 1.19    2005.08.05
        storeBackup.pl
        - in some rare cases filenames were stored with a leading slash
          in .md5CheckSum. I could not be simulated by me. But the bug
          should be fixed.
        - some fixes in handling of directory paths
        - uid and gid were not set correctly for symbolic links in the
          backups (in the files, not the description of the files)
        - formatting of file sizes with human readable number (eg. 3.5k)
          didn't work properly in all cases
        - check for symbolic links before opening temporary files
        - set permissions of backup root directory to 0755
          (independent of umask)
        storeBackupRecover.pl
        - could not restore directory '.' with option -r
        - uid and gid were not set correctly for symbolic links when
          restoring, instead they were changed in the file where the
          symlink pointed to
