Large files, where only c-time is changed, e.g. mailfolders, databases etc. will be saved day after day allthough the content of the files did not change. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: ignore c-time anyway because there is no need to save files where only the status has changed or add another flag to dump and ignore c-time, based on this flag. A solution/workaround is to ignore c-time in the CHANGEDSINCE-macro in /usr/src/sbin/dump/traverse.c /* Auxiliary macro to pick up files changed since previous dump. */ #define CHANGEDSINCE(dp, t) \ - ((dp)->di_mtime >= (t) || (dp)->di_ctime >= (t)) + ((dp)->di_mtime >= (t)) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
