This release uses a bit less memory and is a bit faster than 2.4.2. Its speed of execution is equivalent to 2.3.x releases if you disable two new features appeared in 2.4.0: tape makes (-at option) and sparse file handling (-1 0) Release 2.3.12 only adds a warning to prevent concurrent use of -p and - -Q options. For more details on these two new releases, find below an extract of the Changelog. With the very little number of bug reported about releases in the branch 2.4.x since soon one year, branch 2.3.x will come to its end of support at the end of the year.

In a few weeks, pre-release phase for version 2.4.0 will end and give place to a new major release, until that time you can already test its source code and windows binary at: http://dar.linux.free.fr/pre-release The pre-release phase has started quite in secret at the beginning of this year and has received a growing number of visitors as time passed. Today after seven revisions, the code is found stable enough to increase even more the pre-release audience. You are thus welcome to try it, test its compilation process under your environment, playing with its new and old features... and report any problem to the the dar-support mailing-list or better to the pre-release mailing-list at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dar-pre-release Here follows the list of new features brought by 2.4.0.

Kind Regards, Denis Corbin. version 2.3.10 to 2.3.11 - - fixed bug in the detection code of an existing archive of the same name when creating a new archive (improperly considered some files sharing a part of the archive basename as old slices of an archive of the same base name). - - fixed a display bug. When using -v to see which arguments get passed to dar by mean of configuration file (DCF file, ~/.darrc or /etc/darrc) the last argument found in file was not displayed. - - fixed two bugs (one in decompression routine, the other in decryption routine) that lead dar to segfault or run into an endless loop when reading a very corrupted archive. - - added -H option with -d option - - fixed bug leading Dar to report some files t</pre> Denis Corbin 2011-03-12T16:15:46 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.dar.announce/41 <pre>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, There is a anoying bug in the way libdar removes old slices of an archive having the same name as the one about to be created. While this operation is always done upon user agreement, it may lead dar or dar_xform to remove slices of an archive having a similar name but not exactly the same name. This problem is due to the glob expression used "&lt;basename&gt;.*.dar" which may match more than just slices of archive which basename is "&lt;basename&gt;". Here is an example : If one has an old archive with slices "example.test.1.dar" and "example.test.2.dar" in a directory and is about to create an archive using the basename "example" (thus slices with name "example.1.dar", "example.2.dar" and so on) in that same directory, dar will wrongly consider that "example.test.1.dar" is an old slice of the same archive name because it matches the "example.*.dar" glob expression. More generally, if you do not use any dot in the archive basename, you are not concerned by this bu</pre> Denis Corbin 2010-05-08T16:19:45 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.dar.announce/40 <pre>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, release 2.3.10 is available (as usually from sourceforge): http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=65612 Packages signature are available at homepage http://dar.linux.free.fr/sign/ Follows below the list of changes.
