GNU mtools 4.0.33 released

Hello,

I am pleased to announce the release of GNU mtools version 4.0.33

GNU mtools is available for download from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mtools and the mirror sites worldwide (see
http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html for the list of those).

The sources can be obtained from ftp.gnu.org and its world-wide mirrors:

  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mtools/mtools-4.0.33.tar.gz    (519K)
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mtools/mtools-4.0.33.tar.bz2   (430K)
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mtools/mtools-4.0.33.tar.lz    (373K)

The same directory also contains pre-compiled Debian packages.

Mtools is a collection of utilities to access MS-DOS disks from GNU
and Unix without mounting them, to change FAT-specific file attributes
(hidden, archive, system), and to format FAT media.

Mtools supports W32 style long file names, FAT32, OS/2 Xdf disks and
2m disks (store up to 1992k on a high density 3 1/2 disk). Mtools also
includes mpartition, a simple partitioning programing. It is also a
convenient tool to work with disk image files (thanks to the -i flag).

For more information on mtools, including links to file downloads,
please see the mtools web page: http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools

Please email bugs or suggestions to <[email protected]>.

Improvements since the 4.0.32 release are:
	- Fix support for partitions (broken in 4.0.30)
	- Portability fixes for Solaris 10 and 11
	- General simplification of configure script, and largefile
	  handling
	- Tested and fixed for platforms *without* largefile support
	- In cases where lseek works with 32-bit offsets, prefer lseek64
	  over llseek
	- Fixed floppy sector size handling on platforms that are not
	  Linux
	- Added support for image files on command line to mcat

Regards,

Alain
