Changelog for pv-1.8.10-57.1.x86_64.rpm :

* Sun Jun 30 2024 Dirk Müller - update to 1.8.10:
* feature: new \"`--output`\" option to write to a file instead of standard output (pull request #90) supplied by xmort
* Tue Apr 23 2024 Joshua Smith - version update to 1.8.9
* feature: new \"--si\" option to display and interpret size suffixes in multiples of 1000 rather than 1024
* fix: continue producing progress output when the output is blocking writes
* fix: honour the TMPDIR / TMP environment variables again, rather than hard-coding \"/tmp\", when using a terminal lock file
* i18n: corrections and missing strings added to French translations
* Wed Feb 14 2024 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- version update to 1.8.5
* Corrected percentage formatting so it does not jump from 2 to 3 characters wide at 100%.
* Replaced `--remote` mechanism to use a temporary file instead of SysV IPC, so it can work reliably even when there are multiple pv instances.
* feature: new `--discard` option to discard input as if writing to /dev/null.
* feature: new `--error-skip-block` option to make `--skip- errors` skip whole blocks.
* feature: use `posix_fadvise()` like cat(1) does, to improve efficiency.
* security: with `--pidfile`, write to a temporary file and rename it into place, to improve security.
* security: ignore _TMP_ / _TMPDIR_ environment variables when using a terminal lock file.
* Only report errors about missing files when starting to transfer from them, not while calculating size, and behave more like cat(1) by skipping them and moving on.
* Auto-calculate total line count with `--line-mode` when all inputs are regular files.
* Cope with machine suspend/resume and botched timestamps.
* If `--width` or `--height` were provided, do not change them when the window size changes.
* When a file descriptor position in `--watchfd` moves backwards, show the rate using the correct prefix.
* Rewrite terminal state save/restore so state is not intermittently garbled on exit when using `--cursor`.
* Licensing change from Artistic 2.0 to GPLv3+.
* Thu Nov 30 2023 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- disable testsuite for s390x [bsc#1215338]- remove _constraints again as it didn\'t help- deleted sources - _constraints (not needed)
* Wed Nov 15 2023 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- increase required memory in _constraints [bsc#1217165] (tests still fails in ETA related tests)
* Tue Sep 26 2023 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- add _constraints [bsc#1215338]
* Sun Jul 30 2023 Jan Engelhardt - Update to release 1.7.24
* correct terminal size detection (was broken by 1.7.17)
* Fri Jul 28 2023 Jan Engelhardt - Update to release 1.7.18
* New \"--sync\" option to flush cache to disk after every write
* New \"--direct-io\" option to bypass cache
* Mon Jul 17 2023 Jan Engelhardt - Update to release 1.7.0
* The \"--size\" option now accepts \"AATTfilename\" to use the size of another file.
* New \"--bits\" option to show bit count instead of byte count.
* New \"--average-rate-window\" option, to set the window over which the average rate is calculated, also used for ETA.
* The \"--watchfd\" option will now show relative filenames, if they are under the current directory.
* Add burst rate limit to transfer, so rate limits are not broken by bursty traffic.
* Corrected elapsed time display to show as D:HH:MM:SS after 1 day, like the ETA does.
* Fri Nov 05 2021 Jan Engelhardt - Update to release 1.6.20
* Starting pv in the background no longer immediately stops unless the transfer is to/from the terminal.
* Using -B, -A, or -T now switches on -C implicitly.
