* We believe that we have resolved most of the problems
concerning canceled or failed jobs being "stuck" in the
Director. There is one outstanding problem in the SD when
canceling jobs that we will fix in the next major release.
If you see jobs that seem to be stuck, in general issuing
a cancel command in bconsole should now make them go away.
Directives:
* The default for "Allow Duplicate Jobs" has been changed from
no to yes. If you use this directive, please check your
conf file, and note the next two items!
* AllowHigherDuplicates disabled. It did not work as documented
and was confusing.
* New directive "CancelLowerLevelDuplicates" See New Features
section in the manual.
* Truncate on Purge rewritten. See New Features section in the manual.
* Bug fixes
* Ensure SD asks for help when looping even if poll set.
* Fix three-pool regress bug
* This version fixes an issue where the console window would start out
docked. It is fixed by initiating the variables in the Pages class wi
constructor.
* Fix make_catalog_backup.pl fails when catalog db is on other host
* Fix 1323 about a problem when mounting a requested volume during a restore.
* Add more example SD Device configurations.
* Force the client_encoding to SQL_ASCII when database is already using this
mode.
* Fix 1335 about postgresql error message during copy session
* Cleanup old job records when starting the director (Created/Running -> Failed)
* Apply patch in bug 1315 by McMichaeli that fixes scripts/logwatch
* Add more output when spooling and no space left
* Fix postgresql driver bug that displayed <NULL> rows from time to time.
* Implement the project 'restore' menu: enter a JobId, automatically
select dependents

the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
