Hi,

   https://sourceforge.net/projects/dar/files/dar/2.4.18/

   http://dar.linux.free.fr/sign/v2.4.18

Release 2.4.18 brings several bug fixes which are detailed in the
extract of the Changelog below.

Thanks to Scott DeRousse for feedback and patch to have libdar working
when libgcrypt is used in FIPS mode.


Cheers,
Denis Corbin

from 2.4.17 to 2.4.18
- - Initial Vector used for strong encryption was set with pseudo-random
  data generated using SHA1 message digest and blowfish cipher, which
  are not available when ligcrypt is running in FIPS mode. Since 2.4.18
  we now use
  SHA256 and AES256 for IV assignment in order to have libdar compatible
  with FIPS mode. For data encryption nothing changes: the cipher
  specified (-K, -J, -$ options on CLI) are used as before.
- - fixing bug met when performing archive isolation in sequential-read
  mode, If an archive corruption or truncated archive leads an inode to
  not have its CRC readable, dar aborts and issues a BUG report.
- - updating list of project relying on dar/libdar
