version 1.17      2004.09.04
	storeBackup.pl
	- reduced size of temporary berkeley db files
	  this results in better caching (and therefore better performance
	  for backups with many files)
	- also print size of the berkely db files into the statistical output
	- new option --unlockBeforeDel
	- various little bug fixes (corrected comments and print outputs)
	storeBackupMount.pl
	- better exit status, distinguishes between errors in
	  storeBackup und storeBackupMount

----------------------------
version 1.18.2    2004.06.26
	storeBackup.pl
	- storeBackup calculated too much md5 sums, corrected
	- storeBackup had a dependency with perl versions >= 5.8,

	storeBackup.pl
	- much better performance when used with exceptPattern or
	  includePattern
	storeBackupls.pl
	- if used with option -f, default is to read the the location
	  of the backup from the configuration file

----------------------------
version 1.18.4    2004.07.11
	storeBackup.pl
	- (much) better performance because of reducing the number of
	  md5sum calls when using otherBackupDirs
	- the very first backup of a backup series did not hard link
	  to another backup series defined with otherBackupDirs
	- some temporary files were not deleted
versions are now (overall checksum):

----------------------------
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

	multitail.pl -V                => 118.2667


	- changed max args for GNU/Linux to 64*1024 because of possible
	  problems when using multibyte character sets

----------------------------
version 1.19.1	2005.10.08
	storeBackup.pl
	- reduced the lenght of the command line because of problems
	  with dual byte characters
	- all temporary file names now have a 64 bit random number
	  all (randomly generated) file names are checked for existence
	  before used

----------------------------
version 1.19.2  2005.11.13
        storeBackup.pl
	- when saving with --sourceDir / without using --includeDirs then
	  storeBackup calculated useless md5sums

----------------------------
----------------------------
version 2.0  2008.11.09
        all programs:
	- changed licence to gpl-3
	- backup format is compatible to version 1.19,
	  options *have changed*
	- fixed several bugs
	- introduction of lateLinks (this is the major change)
	  - new options lateLinks, lateCompress
	- new module for interpreting command line arguments and
	  configuration file: a combination is now possible
	- better support for files > 2GB on 64 bit operating systems
	storeBackup.pl, storeBackupDel.pl:
	- arguments in command line can overwrite configuration file
	- new option keepRelative
	- new option deleteNotFinishedDirs
	storeBackup.pl:
	- rewrite of core engine
	- changed algorithm for linking with old backups
	- directories specified with exceptDirs will now be created
	  as empty directories
	- new option ignorePerms
	- new option cpIsGnu (support for special files)
	- new option saveRAM (default is now to hold temp. DBs in RAM)
	- removal of option exceptDirsSep
	- renamed option withTime to suppressTime
	- renamed option compressMD5File to doNotCompressMD5File
	- exceptPattern has gone, now there is exceptRule (different syntax)
	- includePattern has gone, now there is includeRule (different syntax)
	- new option writeExcludeLog
	- setting time on (absolute) symbolic link resulted in setting time
	  in the original file -> corrected
	storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl
	- new program
	- sets links asynchronously after running storeBackup with lateLinks
	storeBackupSearch.pl
	- new program
	- allows searching in backups with a free definition depending on
	  filename, size, uid, gid, ctime, mtime and file type

----------------------------
version 2.0.1  2008.12.14
	storeBackupDel.pl:
	- option keepLastOfWeek wasn't recognized when set in
	  configuration file
	storeBackup.pl:
	- corrected wrong addition for statistical output of
	  option progressReport

----------------------------
----------------------------
version 3.0  2009.03.15
	- support of ';' as comment sign in configuration files
	  (additionally to '#' for better readability)
	storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- new program, checks consistency of a backup
	storeBackupDel.pl:
	- option keepLastOfWeek wasn't recognized when set in
	  configuration file
	storeBackup.pl:
	- new options for saving files blocked:
	  checkBlocksSuffix
	  checkBlocksSuffixMinSize
	  checkBlocksSuffixBS
	  checkBlocksCompr
	- new options for saving files blocked:
	  checkBlocksRule (0-4)
	  checkBlocksBS (0-4)

	- new options for saving devices blocked:
	  checkDevices (0-4)
	  checkDevicesDir (0-4)
	  checkDevicesBS (0-4)
	  checkDevicesCompr (0-4)
	- new option to hard link symbolic links:
	  linkSymlinks
	- new option for defining which files to compress:
	  comprRule

----------------------------
version 3.1  2009.05.24
	storeBackup.pl
	- storeBackup did not backup sockets, now it does
	- for new files, the md5 sum is now calculated before *and*
	  after copying / compressing for safety reasons. The file could
	  have been changed during that time. So the md5 sum would not
	  match the real one. A file with the firstly calculated
	  md5 sum later could be hard linked to the changed file which
	  means there is no backup of its content.
	  If both md5 sums do not match, an warning is generated and
	  the md5 sum is set to ggggg... which is a not possible value.
	  This problem does not exist for blocked files in v3.0.
	- improved statistic at the end of a run (sum of warnings
	  and errors)
	- added options checkBlocksParallel and checkDevicesParallel
	- added option linkToRecent
	- name clashes because of compressing files (eg. add .bz2)
	  were not handeld corretly - bug was introduced in 3.0
	  corrected
	- when making a backup with source=/ while not using
	  includeDir then the md5 sums of all files were calculated
	  also after the first backup
	- corrected some issues with the statistical output
	- option copyBWLimit is now deprecated because
	  - of internal performance optimization
	  - it is useless
	- new option suppressWarning
	storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl
	- if sourceDir=/, for the very first backup with option
	  lateLinks an empty 'linkFrom' file was generated which lead
	  to (useless) error messages. corrected.
	storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- now also checks if files in the backup are not listed
	  in .md5CheckSum
	storeBackupRecover.pl
	- the directories in the path to the restored files / directories
	  were not set the original permissions, corrected
	llt
	- added option --epoch to calculate human readable dates from
	  epoch based dates
	man
	- man pages for all programs (Thanks to Ryan Niebur)
	all programs
	- solved issues with single quotes in path and filenames

----------------------------
version 3.2  2009.07.18
	storeBackup.pl
	- new option --highLatency, useful on high latency lines
	- corrected some typos in print statements to log files
	- now also checks for size of files if files with two equal
	  md5 sums are detected
	- fixed a bug when using *block* options. storeBackup.pl stopped
	  with an error message when blocked file was existing with same
	  path, filename, contents and times in another series but did
	  not exist in the own series of that backup.
	- plus some very minor enhancements
	all programs:
	- if an option in a configuration file is set to nothing, the
	  default value (if exists) is used

----------------------------
version 3.2.1 2012.02.12
	storeBackup.pl
	- replaced File::Copy by own function, because File::Copy did not
	  handle strange filenames (eg. with \n) without warnings
	- read .md5CheckSum.info with algorithm for configuration file
	- changed comments for some options
	- new parameter fileNameWithLineFeed to option suppressWarning:
	  suppresses warning if a filename contains a line feed
	- write logInBackupDirFileName into .md5CheckSum.info so it can
	  be identified by storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- deletition of old backups is now done before postcommand
	- backup of a blocked file (or device) didn't store all md5sums
	  for all blocks in the local .md5CheckSum file if two or more
	  block in one blocked file were identical
	  this means it is possible to restore the data with cat or bzcat,
	  but *not* with storeBackupRecover.pl !
	- statistics for storage of blocked files corrected
	- avoided some (useless) perl warnings about undef'ed variables
	- avoided some (useless) perl warnings about gotos (happens in
	  new perl versions)
	- if a file cannot be hard linked, storeBackup.pl makes a new
	  copy of that file. The warning about that fact was shifted to
	  debug output because it confused some users
	- corrected some confusing code about combinations of compression,
	  lateCompression and lateLinks
	- solved several possible timing issues (reading of tmp-result files
	- masking for file names with \n was missing when writing into
	  lateLinks command file
	- avoid possibility of division by zero when calculating time
	  for run (percentage) in statistics
	- corrected calculation of 'sum of target all' in statistics
	- directories with \n in their name didn't get right time stamps
	  in the backup; corrected
	- permissions on directories with \n in their names were not set
	  correctly
	storeBackupls.pl
	- in storeBackupls.pl option keepLastOfWeek, backupDir and series
	  was ignored in the configuration file
	- option -v didn't work properly
	- workaround for timing issue when reading value for inodeBackup
	storeBackupMount.pl
	- corrected filering of output from mount command
	- added 'rw', 'ro' feature to overwrite read only or read write
	  from /etc/fstab
	storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- read .md5CheckSum.info with algorithm for configuration file
	- add option includeRenamedBackups
	- changed option -b to -c (for compatibility to storeBackupRecover.pl
	- many error corrections (mostly written new)
	storeBackupRecover.pl
	- read .md5CheckSum.info with algorithm for configuration file
	- backup of a directory / file starting with '.' didn't work
	- recovery of blocked files did not work in special cases
	  (depending on size of the blocks and compression flag)
	- permissions on directories were not restored because if wrong
	  order - they are now set after restoring all files
	- optimized performance (bigger block size for restoring blocked files)
	- mtime of restored files was not set to original values because
	  of wrong order of setting permissions (corrected)
	storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl
	- replaced File::Copy by own function, because File::Copy did not
	  handle strange filenames (eg. with \n) without warnings
	- read .md5CheckSum.info with algorithm for configuration file
	- corrected line number when reporting problems with command file
	  (.storeBackupLinks/linkFile.bz2)
	- directories didn't get right time stamps when restoring; corrected
	storeBackupVersions.pl
	- read .md5CheckSum.info with algorithm for configuration file

----------------------------
version 3.3 2012.09
	general
	- command line option --unset now also works with list parameters
	  set in configuration files
	  (you can use eg. --unset otherBackupSeries with storeBackup.pl)
	storeBackup.pl
	- when saving blocked files or devices with a block size smaller
	  than 1M, then always bzip2 is used as compression algorithm -
	  doesn't matter if you eg. had chosen gzip2. In the backup, the
	  suffix was eg. .gz, but compression algorithm was bzip2.
	  storeBackupRecover cannot restore these backups correctly!
	  Please restore with eg. zcat manually
	- added rule-function COMPRESS_CHECK
	- changed option checkDevicesCompr<n> from switch to option with
	  parameter. Possible values are yes, no, check
	- added option comprSuffix (now there exists a white list and a
	  black list to decide if a file should be compressed or not;
	  the rest of the files is rated by COMPRESS_CHECK)
	- added option checkBlocksParallel (similar functionality
	  as eg. checkBlocksParallel0)
	- use DB_File now done in eval. This means, that there is now
	  error message any more if this extension is not available
	  -> should solve problems with several NAS boxes
	- ignore option 'mergeBackupDir' used by new program
	  storeBackupMergeIsolatedBackup.pl
	- added statistical output 'COMPR_CHECK' for blocked files
	- added keys to option 'suppressWarning':
	  use_DB_File, use_IOCompressBzip2
	- option 'ignoreReadError' didn't work - read errors on
	  directories always were shown as WARNING only; fixed
	- add some default suffixes to exceptSuffix
	storeBackup.pl + storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- storeBackup.pl didn't store correct pathname in .md5CheckSum when
	  saving blocked devices, therefore storeBackupCheckBackup.pl couldn't
	  check those files
	- storeBackupCheckBackup.pl needed small enhancement to be able
	  to read correct pathname generated from storeBackup.pl for
	  blocked devices
	storeBackup.pl + storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl
	- fixed bug: backup with block + lateLinks; 1st backup complete;
	  2nd backup with *no* changes to blocked file; 3rd backup with
	  changes to blocked file (all without UpdateBackup between 1st,
	  2nd and 3rd run) -> in 3rd run no blocks were linked to
	  existing one
	- added option --autorepair (-a) to storeBackup.pl
	- fixed bug: storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl now can handle combination
	  of lateLinks and not finished backups
	storeBackup.pl + storeBackupDel.pl (+ all others reading config files)
	- can now read compressed configuration files
	  (recognizing suffix .bz2 and .gz)
	storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl
	- added support for replication, new options:
	  --copyBackupOnly, --dontCopyBackup, --archiveDurationCopyStation,
	  --dontDelInCopyStation, --genBackupBaseTreeConf,
	  --genCopyStationConf
	storeBackupMount.pl
	- Debian (and Ubuntu) changes all executables to a name without
	  the suffix '.pl'. storeBackupMount.pl now looks for
	  storeBackup.pl _and_ storeBackup
	storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- corrected help text / man page
	- added log file management
	storeBackupDel.pl
	- added 'BEGIN' and 'END' to log files for better support
	  through NAGIOS plugin
	- --plusLogStdout didn't work
	storeBackupSetupIsolatedMode.pl
	- new program
	storeBackupMergeIsolatedBackup.pl
	- new program
	storeBackupReplicationWizard.pl
	- new program
	linkToDirs.pl
	- new program
	storeBackupCheckSource.pl
	- new program

----------------------------
version 3.3.1
	linkToDirs.pl
	- added option --saveRAM and --tmpdir
	- option --ignoreErrors

	storeBackup.pl
	- removed generation and reading of file backupDir/.md5BlockCheckSum
	  This redundant information is not necessary any more
	- blocked files: permissons and owner/group were not set to root (if
	  backup ran by root) and not to the real owner/group/permissions
	- option --saveLogs was always switched on
	- Storing of blocked files didn't work if an existing block had to
	  be hard linked when the number of possible hard links was reached.
	  (In reality, this happened esp. with big sparse files.) corrected
	- added parameter noBackupForPeriod to option suppressWarning
	  (thanks to Oliver Okrongli)
	- added option --checkCompr / -C  (command line only)
	- didn't work when path to storeBackup.pl contained a blank
	  (this bug could have been present in other programs also -
	  correted in lib)

	storeBackupCheckBackup.pl
	- also check md5 sum entries in case of already checked files
	  which are there for hard links only
	- added enhanced logging like in storeBackup.pl
	- added option --wrongFileTables
	- at the end, more errors than happen where summarizing
	- added option --lastOfEachSeries

	storeBackupMount.pl
	- newly written. Now allows usage of more programs than
	  storeBackup.pl only

	storeBackupUpdateBackup.pl
	- better error correction (option --autorepair)
	- added enhanced logging like in storeBackup.pl
	- changed useless error message to info
	  (repair of 'link from' reference from not replicated series)
	- blocked files: permissons and owner/group were not set to root (if
	  backup ran by root) and not to the real owner/group/permissions
	- added missing function 'cleanup'
	- compression now runs natively without calling external program bzip2
	  if possible (bzip2 used + module IO::Compress::Bzip2 available)
	- changed 'cp -v' to 'cp -a' when copying delta cache information for
	  replication. This allows replication on eg. samba shares

	storeBackupCheckSource.pl
	- added enhanced logging like in storeBackup.pl

	storeBackupSetupIsolatedMode.pl
	- added option --explicitBackup

	dateTools.pl
	- corrected wrong calculation in dateTools::sub
	  this affected storeBackupUpdateBackup deletion of old replicas in
	  deltaCache for intraday timeframes (not important)
