[flexbackup-announce] flexbackup 1.1.7 and 1.0.4

[Edwin H. <ed...@co...>]

A couple bugs popped up, figured I would release things.

Version 1.1.7 additionally adds a useful "copy" type that mirrors the files
to be backed up into a directory tree rather than an archive file (only
works with to-disk backups of course)

1.0.4 is just the bug fix parts for the old release.  I think this is the
last release of that tree I will do, the development stuff I am going to
call 'stable' real soon once I spiff the documentation up some.

Version 1.1.7 (20030618)
                                                                             
Changes:
  - Added "copy" type that just mirrors the files into a directory tree
    if archiving to disk
  - Initial support of "-pkgdelta" with FreeBSD packages
  - On FreeBSD, use mt to set 1-filemark behavior globally
  - Globally ignore sockets
  - Use "find -prune" for subtree pruning.  (When this happens, we have to
    turn off "-depth" switch, as with GNU find 4.1.7 they don't work
    together. Need to check into findutils more.)
                                                                             
Bugfixes/cleanup:
  - Don't use --same-order for tar. -extract -flist would fail if you had
    more than one file and they weren't in the expected order
  - Use --ignore-failed-read for tar
  - Remote tape drive device didn't create index key correctly
  - Typo/update star flags setup
  - Tweak quiet flags
