[...] False alarm. I have contacted the RedHat dump packager (Adam Tkac) which explained to me that the bug is private because reported by a customer, and that he fergot to send the patch upstream. Quoting him: "The patch fixes issue with multi volume backups. When you backup a file which is splitted to two or more volumes and the file starts on 2nd tape or later, then this file is not restored correctly. With the patch file is restored correctly." I will apply the patch in CVS ASAP, but I wanted to let all know that there is no need to hurry to update, there are no security implications here. Thanks, Stelian. -- Stelian Pop <st...@po...> |
