Cedar Backup v1.11 Released



Cedar Backup v1.11 has been released.  This is a maintainence release,
focusing on one enhancement and a small amount of cleanup.  Daniel
Bonniot requested that I add support for ATA CD devices under Linux 2.6,
which I did right away because it ended up requiring only a few simple
changes.  

Here's the official changelog entry:

   Version 1.11   17 Oct 2004

      * Add experimental support for new Linux 2.6 ATA CD devices.
      * SCSI id can now be in the form '[ATA:]scsibus,target,lun'.
      * Internally, the SCSI id is now stored as a string, not a list.
      * Cleaned up 'cdrecord' calls in cdr.py to make them consistent.
      * Fixed a pile of warnings noticed by the latest pychecker.

You can get the latest Python source package from this URL:

You can get the latest Debian package from the Cedar Solutions APT
source, or from this URL:

   http://cedar-solutions.com/ftp/debian/dists/sarge/binary-i386/admin/cedar-backup/cedar-backup_1.11-1_all.deb

This release has been through a full backup cycle on my own personal
machines, and seems to work without problems.  Unfortunately, I can't
test the new ATA functionality since I don't have a machine with a CD
burner running the 2.6 kernel.  I'm assuming that Daniel can let me know
if there are problems.  The changes were minor, so I believe it should
be OK.

Please write the list or file a bug in Bugzilla if you notice any
problems with this release.

Thanks,

KEN
