./archivers/lzip, Lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm

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


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.24.1, Package name: lzip-1.24.1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with
very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of
gzip or bzip2. Lzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip and compresses
better than bzip2, which makes it well suited for software distribution
and data archiving.

Log message:
lzip: update to 1.24.

Changes in version 1.24:

The option '--empty-error', which forces exit status 2 if any empty member
is found, has been added.

The option '--marking-error', which forces exit status 2 if the first LZMA
byte is non-zero in any member, has been added.

File diagnostics have been reformatted as 'PROGRAM: FILE: MESSAGE'.

Diagnostics caused by invalid arguments to command-line options now show the
argument and the name of the option.

The option '-o, --output' now preserves dates, permissions, and ownership of
the file when (de)compressing exactly one file.

The option '-o, --output' now creates missing intermediate directories when
writing to a file.

The variable MAKEINFO has been added to configure and Makefile.in.

Log message:
lzip: update to 1.22.

Changes in version 1.22:

Lzip now reports an error if a file name is empty (lzip -t "").

Option '-o, --output' now behaves like '-c, --stdout', but sending the
output unconditionally to a file instead of to standard output. See the new
description of '-o' in the manual. This change is backwards compatible only
when (de)compressing from standard input alone. Therefore commands like:
  lzip -o foo.lz - bar < foo
must now be split into:
  lzip -o foo.lz - < foo
  lzip bar
or rewritten as:
  lzip - bar < foo > foo.lz

When using '-c' or '-o', lzip now checks whether the output is a terminal
only once.

Lzip now does not even open the output file if the input file is a terminal.

Lzip can now be built, tested, and installed on systems lacking a 'make'
program. (Feature suggested by Mohammad Akhlaghi).

The words 'decompressed' and 'compressed' have been replaced with the
shorter 'out' and 'in' in the verbose output when decompressing or testing.

Option '--list' now reports corruption or truncation of the last header in a
multimenber file specifically instead of showing the generic message "Last
member in input file is truncated or corrupt."

The commands needed to extract files from a tar.lz archive have been
documented in the manual, in the output of '--help', and in the man page.

Plzip and tarlz are mentioned in the manual as alternatives for
multiprocessors.

Several fixes and improvements have been made to the manual.

9 new test files have been added to the testsuite.

Log message:
all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F

With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.

This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
