+ handler changes
+ dup:
+ . General cleanup
+ . Better support for new duplicity (>= 0.4.4) command line syntax:
+ run remove-older-than when $keep is not set to yes (Closes: #458816),
+ and run "duplicity cleanup" before any other duplicity command; both
+ only trigger a warning on failure, since they should not stop backups
+ from being done. Also migrated full/incremental backup switch to the
+ new syntax.
+ rdiff:
+ . Fixed ignore_version default value missing
+ . Add patch from Matthew Palmer to rdiff handler to incorporate sshoptions
+ into options via remote-schema not already specified (Closes: #424639)
+ wget:
+ . New handler from rhatto designed to incrementally pull content from
+ a website to a local folder, based on the rsync handler

backupninja changes
. Fixed checks on configuration files permissions, since the patch
applied to fix #370396 broke this, especially for configuration files
created with permissions 000 by an older ninjahelper version.
+ . Enhanced portability for other platforms
+ . Added quoting because it was needed to prevent shell expansion, broking the
+ toint function sometimes (Closes: Trac#11)
+ . Fixed reportspace option (Closes: Trac#10)
+ . Fixed ldap handler not recognizing database suffix (Closes: Trac#28)
handler changes
+ dup:
+ . Support duplicity >= 0.4.3 invocation syntax (--ssh-command option
+ is not supported anymore) (Closes: #447425)
+ . New tmpdir configuration option, very useful in case duplicity tends
+ to fill up /tmp.
+ ldap:
+ . Fixed shell command quoting issues, missing 'then' clauses, cleaned up
+ compress=yes to be less redundant and not create empty uncompressed
+ file (Closes: #394935)
+ . Fixed ninjahelper to properly set compress option, standardized on yes/no
+ instead of on/off
+ . Fixed problem that caused combination of slapcat and compress to not work
+ together (Closes: Trac#29)
+ . Applied patch from romain.tartiere@healthgrid.org to fix the SSL/TLS options
+ to be correct, also set TLS to be the default over SSL (Closes: Trac#13)
+ maildir:
+ . Added an examples file (Closes: Trac#23)
+ . Applied patch from Anarcat that fixes the cp/mkdir calls to not use GNU
+ coreutils options, as well as some bashisms (Closes: Trac#24)
+ . Fix test mode (Closes: Trac#25)
+ mysql:
+ . Fixed case where odd combination of configuration options caused sqldump
+ backups to get overwritten with an empty file (Closes: #402679)
+ . Added 'nodata' option to enable you to specify tables that you want to omit
+ the data from a backup, but still backup the table structure. This is very
+ useful in cases where tables contain large amounts of cache data. See the
+ example.mysql for options, thanks Daniel Bonniot (Closes: #408829)
+ . Enhance code for selecting databases by asking MySQL not to give us the
+ header (-N), to not draw pretty boxes around the output (-B), send the query
+ via -e instead of a pipe and ensure MySQL listens to -B. Thanks to
+ Matthew Palmer (Closes: #452039).
+ pgsql:
+ . Support configuring PGSQLUSER for real, and document it a bit; this
+ broken support actually prevented pgsql handler to work for VServers
+ (Closes: #396578)
+ rdiff-backup:
+ . Added cstream support to allow for bandwidth limiting
+ . Handle "keep = yes" to disable old backups removal (Closes: #424633)
+ . Add configuration option to allow you to disable the version check
+ as in some instances this may be an ok scenario (Closes: #424632)
+ . Added local destination support to helper (Closes: Trac#4)
+ . Allow exclude-only configurations (Closes: Trac#21)
+ rub/rsync
+ . Fixed typo in rub handler that caused it to not work
+ . Changed to use lib/vserver code
+ . Fixed fsck error
+ . Fixed integer comparison (Closes: Trac#3)
+ . Renamed handler to 'rsync', replaces outdated rub handler
+ . updated examples/Makefile.am and handlers/Makefile.am to include
+ rsnap/rsync (Closes: #440554)
+ . Added example.rsync configuration file
sys:
. Fixed typo breaking things for VServers.
. Fix bug when vrootdir is on its own partition (Closes: #395928)

- pgsql:
- . Support configuring PGSQLUSER for real, and document it a bit
- (Closes: #396578)
- fixed automake 'make install' bug that failed if /etc/backup.d already
- existed
+ . Better sfdisk error and output handling: should now properly warn
+ when it does not manage to backup a partition table, and shut up when
+ it succeeds (Closes: #396632)
+ . Added option to not use sfdisk at all, useful for vserver/xen instances
+ that produce warnings about no harddisks found (Closes: #404071)
+ . Fixed example in example.sys to detail the __star__ in partitionsfile and
+ note why its necessary (Closes: #409192)
+ . Force C locale for sfdisk to ensure english words are found in grep
+ . Make directory where output is placed configurable, and create the parent dir
+ if it doesn't exist (Closes: Trac#1)
+ ninjareport
+ . Added first draft of method to aggregate reports from many servers into
+ one email. Requires logtail, rsync, configuration of reporthost,
+ reportdirectory and reportuser in backupninja.conf. Configure cron to
+ run once a day, and individual backupninjas not to report by email their
+ status, then enjoy one email report from all hosts, rather than multiple
+ fixed 'make install' bug that failed if /etc/backup.d already existed
+ changed spaces to tabs in Makefile.am
+ updated redhat spec file (thanks Adam Monsen)

. Add admingroup option to configuration to allow a group that can
read/write configurations (instead of only allowing root). Checks
