Hello,

as some of you have already realized, I've uploaded a slightly improved
version to <http://acl.bestbits.at/> a couple of days ago; fixes from
today.

The changes in the ACL library (acl_{get,set}_{file,fd}()) were done to
align with implementations on other systems (like FreeBSD). (The standard
is not totally clear on this).

The xdelta version of the fileutils patch was broken due to a version
conflict with GNU automake. (Don't try to build and re-package fileutils
with either automake 1.4 or the current CVS version--both are broken and
hence won't work correctly.)


Regards,
Andreas.


From the Changes file:


0.7.11 (2 May 2001)
-------------------
Fileutils patch:
  * A packaging error caused some files to be missing in the xdelta
    patch.

0.7.10 (31 April 2001)
--------------
Kernel patches:
  * Extended attributes are now no longer CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL, so
    `Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers' no longer
    needs to be activated.

ACL utilities:
  * acl_get_fd(), acl_get_file() now don't return basic ACL's anymore;
    instead they set errno to ENOTSUP.
  * acl_set_fd(), acl_set_file() fail on filesystems that don't support
    ACLs, even if the ACL to be set is a basice ACL. Instead they set
    errno to ENOTSUP.
  * If msgfmt is not present on a system, the message catalog(s) are
    no longer built.

Fileutils patch:
  * Patch for fileutils-4.1
