- Update to new upstream release 1.17

- Update to new upstream release 1.16

* Compression ratio of option -9 has been slightly increased.

* Compression time has been reduced by 4%.

* `lzip -0` is now comparable in compression speed and ratio to
`gzip -6` (gzip\'s default compression level).

* 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).

* The license has been changed to GPL version 2 or later.

- update to 1.13:

* lziprecover has been moved to its own package

* inability to change output file attributes has been downgraded from error
to warning

* compression time of option \"-0\" has been reduced by 2%

* a reorganization of the compression code has been made

* a small change has been made in the \"--help\" output and man page

* quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU Coding
Standards

Fri May 13 14:00:00 2011 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 1.12:

* the option \"-F, --recompress\", which forces recompression of files whose
name already has the \".lz\" or \".tlz\" suffix, has been added

* for large values of \"--match-length\", the compression ratio has been
slightly increased, and compression time has been reduced by up to 6%

* the compression time of the option \"-0\" has been reduced by 2%

* this release will print only one status line for each multi-member file
when only one \"-v\" is specified

* it will print up to 6 bytes of trailing garbage when \"-vvvv\" is specified

* it does not show the message \"and `--stdout\' was not specified\" for file
types that can\'t be read (directories, etc)

Mon Sep 27 14:00:00 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 1.11:

* match length limit set by options -1 to -8 has been reduced to extend the
range of use towards gzip; lower numbers now compress less but faster

* also, a \"-0\" option as fast as \"gzip -9\" has been added

* the compression of option -9 has been slightly increased

* the \"--merge\" option, which tries to produce a correct file by merging the
good parts of two or more damaged copies, has been added to lziprecover:
for large files with small errors, the probability of producing a correct
file approaches 100 percent

* lziprecover is now able to repair any 1-byte error in the lzma stream of
damaged lzip files

Sat Apr 10 14:00:00 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
- update to 1.10:

* a file specified with the \"-o\" option is now created with write permission
for all if umask allows it, and it is deleted if lzip is interrupted by the
user

* the dictionary size for the options -2, -3, -4, and -8 has been changed to
improve linearity of compressed sizes

Tue Jan 19 13:00:00 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org
