changes:
-many fixes
-new option: Generate encrypted backups without revealing the user's
key id via option --hidden-encrypt-key
-translation updates
-cleanup, doc improvement
pkgsrc changes:
-added option to use gnupg2
-drop py-boto dependency -- if we had a dependency for each possible
backend, it would be just too much. add a MESSAGE pointing to
some options and information
-minor cleanup
New in v0.5.10 (2009/03/01)
---------------------------
The default filename format has changed from W3 style to a long
numeric style, YYYYMMDDTHHMMSSZ, with no delimiters, thus is now
compatible with Windows/Samba filesystems. The time is UTC, not
local, so there will be no timezone or daylight savings time issues.
Duplicity still recognizes the old long filename format, and will
continue incremental backup chains if found. The old format is
still available via the --old-filenames option (pending deprecation).
Users of --short-filenames or --time-separator should stop using these
options on their next full backup. The new filenames are compatible
with your system.
The following options are pending deprecation and will be removed in a
future release:
--time-separator
--short-filenames
--old-filenames
bug #19988: Incompatibility to Samba/SMB share
bug #25097: Allow listing files from any time, not just current time
bug #25550: Error codes do not propagate from log to exit status
bug #25308: Signatures orphaned if from another time zone
Bug #229826: duplicity crashed with ValueError in port()
New in v0.5.09 (2009/02/17)
---------------------------
FTP is now driven with pexpect rather than NcFTP utilities.
This closes the following bugs (and solves other problems):
bug #24741: ncftpls -x '' causes failure on Yahoo FTP server
bug #23516: duplicity/ncftpget not closing unlinked files, ...
bug #25509: Logic error in imapbackend.py [IMAP_SERVER]
bug #25512: [Patch] Retry on Imap failure
bug #25530: commandline passwd not working
New in v0.5.08 (2009/02/02)
---------------------------
Turns out going backwards in the license is not as easy as
forwards. Restoring GPLv3 license until consensus reached.
New in v0.5.07 (2009/01/31)
---------------------------
bug #25293: IOError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
bug #25379: sys.exit() causes traceback and should not
bug #25403: 0.5.06 "manifests not equal, different volume numbers"
patch #6729: New imap backend. Replaces current gmail backend
patch #6730: Fix timing out for SSH backend
patch #6733: Improve error handling in imapbackend.py
Increase default volume size (--volsize) to 25M from 5M. This
reduces the number of volumes to accomodate larger backups.
Reworked patch 6701 to list collection one at a time rather than
writing all as one huge list. Was causing memeory problems when
the collections got large.
Fix backendtest.py so that empty URL's in config.py cause the
backend test to be skipped rather than erroring. Added notes
in config.py.tmpl explaining the change.
Add/update copyright statements in all distribution source files
and revert duplicity to GPL version 2 license.
Original fix to disallow use of ncftpput 3.2.0 mistyped the ErrorCode
used and resulted in an error rather than an explanation.
New in v0.5.06 (2009/01/09)
---------------------------
Fix to deprecation warnings about sha and md5 modules.
Uses hashlib if available, otherwise original module.
Added loop to run-all-tests.sh to run all tests against all supported
versions of Python if available. Looks for 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6.
Noah Spurrier has given us permission to distribute pexpect.py along
with duplicity, so this will no longer be an install requirement.
NcFTP version 3.2.0 will not work with duplicity since we require the
use of both -f and -C options on ncftpput. 3.1.9, 3.2.1+ work fine.
I put in error checks for this situation in the FTP backend code.

patch #6701: Make current-list command machine-readable
patch #6702: handle unknown errnos in robust.py
GPG was throwing "gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=14)" and apparently
this is non-fatal. There is a fix for this being rolled into GPG 2.x.

${WRKSRC}/CHANGES. With this update comes Amazon S3 support provided
by the newly imported net/py-boto package. This has not been tested yet,
however, as I do not have an S3 account. Please let me know if this update
has resulted in any untoward effects. Thanks.
