-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----


Three days after the last release, I'm back :)

This time it's a security update, all users of restore 
are concerned (0.3 versions also).

Please upgrade to the last version, which can be found on:
http://perso.cybercable.fr/pop/dump
or
http://spop.free.fr/dump

Changelog:

Changes between versions 0.4b8 and 0.4b9 (released November 5, 1999)
====================================================================
 
1.      Use lchown instead of chown, fixing a possible security problem
        when restoring symlinks (a malicious user could use this
        to deliberately corrupt the ownership of important system files).
        Thanks to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for detecting
        this and providing the patch.

Stelian.
