pkglint -r --network --only "migrate"
As a side-effect of migrating the homepages, pkglint also fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines. These and the new homepages have been
checked manually.
- Generate Zip64 format .zip files when the output is greater than
or equal to 4 GiB.
- Improved gzip options processing and return code compatibility
- Some bug fixes
Changelog not available, notable changes from the commit log:
- Fix a bug where invalid LZW data could cause out of bounds
access.
- Permit named pipes as input
- Fix bug in directory traversal
- Add warning for a zip file entry 4 GiB or larger

and multiple cores to the hilt when compressing data.
