Technical notes on version 3.8.2Beta13 21 June 2001 Kern Sibbald General: - Fixed bug in creation of PWRFAIL file. Thanks to José for his excellent testing efforts. - Cleaned up configuration of PWRFAILDIR in distribution files. - Fixed installation of multimon.css - Implemented localtime_r() for Win32 systems. Changes submitted this submission: - Due to inconsistencies in the way filenames were constructed, the powerfail path required a trailing slash. Without the slash, the path and the filename were run together, as was the default case. This is now fixed. This bug (since approximately Beta8) prevented the UPS power from being shutoff. - If the powerfail file or nologin file cannot be created, a log message is generated with the reason (e.g. read-only filesystem). - Cleaned up some PTHREADS flags on the FreeBSD system as suggested by Neil. - Noticed that a number of installation scripts did not get modified to handle the powerfail file configuration. (HPUX, Sun, unknown, Alpha, Debian, OpenBSD, RedHat, Slackware, SuSe) - Corrected the bug in the installation of the multimon.css file. It should now install corrrectly on all systems. - Added _THREAD_SAFE and _REENTRANT flags to compiles for threaded version (thanks Neil). - Added code to implement localtime_r() on Win32 systems since it does not exist in libc.
