A core dump caused by invalid inputs was fixed
in mtx.c, and the Makefile was changed to work
with systems whose 'install' program accepts
only one argument.The Exabyte hack in the drive
parsing code was uncommented so that it works
with ATL loaders again, and a hack to keep ATL
stacked loaders from reporting ghost slots was
added. AIX support was added with the GSC
driver, and __WEIRD_CHAR_SUPPRESS is now the
default to stop barcode garbling.
This release adds an 'exchange' command for exchanging media between two slots (or optionally putting the media in the second slot into yet a third slot). The new feature only works for changers that implement the EXCHANGE_MEDIUM SCSI command. The 'qdbackup' (Quick'n'Dirty Backup) script is included in the 'contrib' directory, which can help you use 'mtx' in your own backup scripts.
This release starts the new unstable development branch with many new
features, such as a new Linux SCSI subsystem, POSITION_TO_ELEMENT,
etc. Please use the 1.2.x series for production work unless you need
the new features.
