Bugs Fixed
* An apply-incremental-backup operation failed with an
error (RDR1 ERROR: Unable to remove relaylog files from
full backup) when the incremental backup was created with
the --compress option. (Bug #28366241)
* mysqlbackup quit unexpectedly during an
apply-incremental-backup operation if the backed up
server had been started using relative paths for
--datadir and --log-bin. (Bug #28334521)
* Attempts to restore a backup of a MySQL 5.7 Server to a
MySQL 8.0 Server resulted in a strange error message
(Server_version is not obtained). With this fix,
mysqlbackup now indicates that the operation is not
supported. For related information, see Restoring a
Backup with a Database Upgrade or Downgrade
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-enterprise-backup/8.0/en/restore-upgrade.html).
