| xz-utils (5.0.0-3) stable; urgency=low |
| |
| * Fixes from upstream: |
| * liblzma: |
| - lzma_easy_buffer_encode() and lzma_stream_buffer_encode() |
| avoid writing Blocks with empty compressed data that xz and |
| liblzma versions before 5.0.2 cannot read. |
| - The LZMA2 decoder skips Blocks with empty compressed data |
| instead of rejecting them. |
| - Validates encoder arguments better. It is harder to segfault |
| or create a corrupt XZ file instead of receiving an error |
| when calling these functions: |
| - lzma_stream_buffer_encode() and lzma_block_buffer_encode() |
| reject unsupported integrity checks; |
| - lzma_block_encoder() checks for block == NULL. |
| - bcj: Fix possibility of incorrect LZMA_BUF_ERROR (reported in |
| XZ Embedded as Fedora bug 735408). |
| - Plugs a memory leak in lzma_stream_encoder(). |
| - lzma_index_init() returns NULL instead of segfaulting on |
| allocation failure. |
| * docs/examples/xz_pipe_decompress.c checks that the last |
| lzma_code() call returned LZMA_STREAM_END to avoid mistaking a |
| file without a proper footer for a valid XZ file. |
| * "xz -v -v --list" does not free() filter options unless the |
| filter options array has been initialized. This prevents |
| reading and free()ing pointers from past the end of an on-stack |
| array when one of the listed files has an unmeaningful Block |
| header size. |
| * xzegrep and xzfgrep perform extended regex and fixed-string |
| matches, respectively. (The previous behavior was to always |
| use basic regexes.) |
| * The exit status from “xzdiff foo.xz bar.xz” reflects whether |
| files differ. Thanks to Peter Pallinger. Closes: #635501. |
| * xzgrep does not fail just because the decompressor has died |
| with SIGPIPE due to some unconsumed output. This makes the |
| exit status from commands such as "xzgrep -q" more predictable. |
| * The Czech “xz --help” output uses a more correct term for files |
| with holes. Thanks to Petr Hubený. Closes: #605762. |
| * The Italian diagnostic for an invalid --format argument lost an |
| extra 'N'. |
| * debian/rules: "chmod +x tests/test_scripts.sh" for new xzdiff |
| tests. |
| * debian/symbols: Bump the minimal versions for LZMA2 encoder |
| functions that reject more bad arguments and skip empty blocks. |
| * liblzma-dev: Install an appropriate library for static linking |
| instead of the decompression-only version used to build xzdec. |
| Thanks to Anton Tolchanov. Closes: #673001. |

| |
| * Upload to experimental. |
| * New stable upstream release. Closes: #592298. |
| - xz avoids SA_RESTART. This should not have a visible effect |
| because xz already blocked signals during operations that |
| would be difficult to resume after interruption. |
| - liblzma: The coders returned by lzma_index_encoder() and |
| lzma_index_decoder() support an LZMA_FINISH action, with |
| identical semantics to LZMA_RUN. |
| - The printable (PDF and PS) versions of the manual are easier |
| to read. |
| - Many documentation and build system cleanups. |
| * liblzma: Back out upstream ABI tweaks. |
| * liblzma/README.Debian: Document ABI differences from upstream. |
| * Copy sample code not included in the release tarball from |
| the development upstream repository to debian/examples. |
| * debian/rules clean: Remove some files not included in the |
| release tarball. |
| * copyright: List new INSTALL.generic license. |

| * debian/rules: Adapt for upstream build system changes. |

| xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20100903-1) experimental; urgency=low |
| |
| * New snapshot, taken from upstream commit 373ee26. |
| - liblzma: The settings for compression levels 0 through 5 |
| (used by xz -0/.../-5) have been tweaked. This affects the |
| speed, compression ratio, and memory usage at compression and |
| decompression time. |
| - Does not search so hard for a match when a low "nice match |
| length" setting is specified without a depth. |
| - xz: The -1/.../-9 preset options override any previously |
| specified filters, rather than vice versa. To mix presets |
| with filter options, use the --lzma2=preset=n option. |
| - xz: Warns about --memlimit-compress settings that result in |
| compression settings changing even if no explicit -1/.../-9, |
| --lzma1, or --lzma2 option was used. |
| - "xz -v -v --compress" now prints an estimate of the memory |
| required to decompress a file. |
| * debian/copyright: Update upstream Git URL. |
| * debian/changelog.upstream.sh: Permit terser changelog lines. |

| |
| * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit d5653ba8a. |
| - xz: The memory usage limiter is now disabled by default. |
| - xz: Support for an XZ_DEFAULTS environment variable was added. |
| It contains user-specific default settings, such as memory usage |
| limits, and can be overridden by the command line and XZ_OPT. |
| - xz: The new --memlimit-compress and --memlimit-decompress |
| options allow the memory usage limit to be set separately for |
| compression and decompression. A new --memlimit alias has been |
| added for the existing --memory option. |
| - xz: The --info-memory option (with or without --robot) now prints |
| how much RAM is installed in addition to the compression and |
| decompression memory limits. |
| * liblzma-doc: Simplify package description. |
| * debian/control: Build-Depends: autopoint | gettext (<< 0.18-1), |

| |
| * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit 07a11dad. |
| + Fix some logic errors in the internal memory usage configuration |
| API. |
| + xz will no longer compress or decompress special files in place, |
| even with --force. |
| --force still enables compression of the target of a symlink. |
| + xz will no longer read compressed data from a terminal or write |
| it to a terminal, even with --force. |
| + liblzma: many Index handling API improvements: |
| - An lzma_index includes more useful metadata that is not |
| actually from the Index. This is particularly helpful for |
| describing multiple-stream files. |
| * lzma_index_cat() does not take a stream padding argument |
| any more; use lzma_index_stream_padding() instead. |
| * lzma_index_memusage() takes two arguments now. |
| The new lzma_index_memused() convenience function |
| calculates the total memory usage of an lzma_index. |
| * lzma_index_count() has been replaced with |
| lzma_index_block_count() and lzma_index_stream_count(). |
| * The new lzma_index_stream_flags() allows storing Stream |
| Flags (e.g., checksum types) with the Index information. |
| * The new lzma_index_checks() function indicates the list of |
| checksum types in use. |
| * lzma_index_equal() has been removed. Its semantics were |
| unclear, and something approximately equivalent can be |
| implemented by iterating over Blocks in application code. |
| - An lzma_index no longer represents a position within an Index. |
| The new lzma_index_iter type can be used for that purpose. |
| * Certain functions generate an iterator on demand now rather |
| than clobbering their lzma_index arguments. Using a single |
| lzma_index for multiple concurrent invocations is safe now: |
| lzma_index_buffer_encode(), lzma_index_encoder() |
| * Functions that used to specify a Record by modifying an |
| lzma_index argument have been renamed and taught to write |
| an lzma_index_iter instead: |
| lzma_index_locate() -> lzma_index_iter_locate() |
| lzma_index_rewind() -> lzma_index_iter_rewind() |
| lzma_index_read() -> lzma_index_iter_next() |
| * The lzma_index_record type used by lzma_index_read() for |
| complex seeks is no more. lzma_index_iter_next() instead |
| takes a parameter of the new lzma_index_iter_mode type. |
| * New function: lzma_index_iter_init() |
| * lzma_index_init() cannot reuse memory from an existing |
| lzma_index any more. The signature changed accordingly. |
| + xz: support for decompressing to a sparse file |
| - Try to write a sparse file if the decompressed stream contains |
| long runs of null bytes. |
| - The new --no-sparse option disables this behavior. |
| + xz: add Czech translation. |
| + liblzma-dev: lzma_filters_copy() and lzma_filters_update() are |
| declared not to throw exceptions. |
| * liblzma: bump soname. |
| * xz-utils: Add NEWS.Debian describing the sparse file support. |
