Changelog for
plzip-1.8-24.1.x86_64.rpm :
Mon Jan 7 13:00:00 2019 Jan Engelhardt
- Update to new upstream release 1.8
* No functional changes; just a version bump.
Fri Dec 14 13:00:00 2018 Jan Engelhardt
- Update to new upstream release 1.8~rc1
* The new options \'--in-slots\' and \'--out-slots\', setting the
number of input and output packets buffered during streamed
decompression, have been added. Increasing the number of
packets may increase decompression speed, but requires more
memory.
* The default number of input packets buffered per worker
thread when decompressing from non-seekable input has been
increased from 2 to 4.
* The default number of output packets buffered per worker
thread when decompressing to non-seekable output has been
increased from 32 to 64.
* Detection of forbidden combinations of characters in trailing
data has been improved.
Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2018 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.7
* The option \"--loose-trailing\" has been added.
* The test used by clzip to discriminate trailing data from a
corrupt header in multimember or concatenated files has been
improved to a Hamming distance of 3.
Thu May 11 14:00:00 2017 mpluskalAATTsuse.com
- Update to version 1.6:
* The option \'-l, --list\' has been ported from lziprecover.
* It is now an error to specify two or more different operations
in the command line (--decompress, --list or --test).
* In test mode, plzip now continues checking the rest of the
files if any input file is a terminal.
- Update dependecies and sections for info file handling
Sat Aug 20 14:00:00 2016 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.5
* The option \"-a, --trailing-error\", which makes plzip exit with
error status 2 if any remaining input is detected after
decompressing the last member, has been added.
* When decompressing, the file specified with the \"--output\" option
is now deleted if the input is a terminal.
Thu Aug 6 14:00:00 2015 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.4
* The option \"-0\" has been modified to use the new fast encoder of
lzlib 1.7, which achieves a compression speed and ratio
comparable to those of pigz\'s default compression level.
Sun Feb 8 13:00:00 2015 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.3
* Testing of a non-seekable file or of standard input now uses up
to 30 MiB less memory per thread.
* \"-dvvv\" and \"-tvvv\" now show the dictionary size of the first
member, producing the same output as lzip for single-member
files.
Wed Oct 1 14:00:00 2014 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.2
* Copying of file dates, permissions, and ownership now behaves
like `cp -p`. (If the user ID or the group ID cannot be
duplicated, the file permission bits S_ISUID and S_ISGID are
cleared).
* Individual limits have been set on the number of packets produced
by each decompresor worker thread to limit the amount of memory
used in all cases.
* The license has been changed to GPL version 2 or later.
Tue Sep 23 14:00:00 2014 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Drop gpg-offline build-time requirement; this is now handled by
the local source validator
Sun Sep 29 14:00:00 2013 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.1
* Plzip now shows the progress of compression at verbosity
level 2 (-vv).
Wed Jun 5 14:00:00 2013 jengelhAATTinai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.0
* Scalability of compression (max number of useful worker threads)
has been increased. Scalability when decompressing from/to
regular files has been increased.
* The number of worker threads is now limited to the number of
members in the input file when decompressing from a regular file.
- Do signature verification
- Wrap description at 70 cols
- Remove redundant %clean section
Thu Apr 19 14:00:00 2012 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 0.9: minor fixes and cleanup
Sun Feb 26 13:00:00 2012 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 0.8:
* the option \"-F, --recompress\", which forces recompression of files whose
name already has the \".lz\" or \".tlz\" suffix, has been added
* the options \"-d, --decompress\" and \"-t, --test\" now also show compression
ratio
* inability to change output file attributes has been downgraded from error
to warning
* quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU Coding
Standards
Wed Mar 24 13:00:00 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 0.6:
* some small portability problems have been fixed
* updates to the manual
Mon Feb 15 13:00:00 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 0.5:
* parallel decompression has been implemented
Wed Jan 27 13:00:00 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 0.3:
* the \"--data-size\" option has been added
* the output file is now removed if plzip is interrupted
* this version automatically chooses the smallest possible
dictionary size for each member during compression, saving
memory during decompression
* regular files are now opened in binary mode on non-POSIX
platforms defining the O_BINARY macro
