./archivers/lz4, Extremely Fast Compression algorithm

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.10.0, Package name: lz4-1.10.0, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

LZ4 is a very fast lossless compression algorithm, providing
compression speed at 400 MB/s per core, scalable with multi-cores
CPU. It also features an extremely fast decoder, with speed in
multiple GB/s per core, typically reaching RAM speed limits on
multi-core systems.

Log message:
lz4: Libtoolize.

As well as making this package more portable to exotic linkers, it
can now take better advantage of make-level parallelism.

Log message:
archivers/lz4: Remove cross-compilation patch; make different target.

The `all' target apparently includes things that aren't necessary for
the build products we expect.  Just use an empty target so that make
selects the first one in the makefile, which according to
https://github.com/lz4/lz4/issues/1240 is the reasonable choice here.

No change to the build products that are installed -- this just makes
lz4 build fewer things.
