(Ethan Benson) (Debian bug - #132272, CVE CAN-2002-0080) +rsync changes since last release BUG FIXES: + + * Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3. (John + L. Allen, Martin Pool) - * Fixed problem that in many cases caused the error message - unexpected read size of 0 in map_ptr - and resulted in the wrong data being copied. - - * Fixed compilation errors on some systems caused by the use of - "unsigned int64" in rsync.h. - - * Fixed problem on systems such as Sunos4 that do not support realloc - on a NULL pointer; error was "out of memory in flist_expand". - - * Fix for rsync server processes hanging around after the client - unexpectedly disconnects. (Colin Walters) (Debian bug #128632) - - * Cope with BSD systems on which mkdir() will not accept a trailing - slash. - - ENHANCEMENTS: - - * Merge in changes from zlib 1.1.2 to zlib 1.1.3. (Note that - rsync still uses a custom version of zlib; you can not just link - against a system library. See zlib/README.rsync) - - * Command to initiate connections is only shown with -vv, rather - than -v as in 2.5.2. Output from plain -v is more similar to - what was historically used so as not to break scripts that try - to parse the output. - - * Added --no-whole-file and --no-blocking-io options (Dave Dykstra) - - * Made the --write-batch and --read-batch options actually work - and added documentation in the man page (Jos Backus) - - * If the daemon is unable to fork a child to accept a connection, - print an error message. (Colin Walters) + * Fix compilation on Tru64. (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham) \ No newline at end of file
