Details

Updated dump packages that fix a bug are now available.

The dump package contains both dump and restore. Dump examines files
in a file system, determines which ones need to be backed up, and
copies those files to a specified disk, tape, or other storage medium.
The restore command performs the inverse function of dump; it can
restore a full backup of a file system. Subsequent incremental backups
can then be layered on top of the full backup. Single files and
directory subtrees may also be restored from full or partial backups.

Removed extended attributes (EAs) support from restore program.

Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.
