developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Relevant change,
+5.52 (28 Feb 05):
+ - win32/win32.c - defer_dir_attribs(): fixed critical "mem-access to
+ nirwana" bug when processing directory entries without any local
+ extra field; added some explaining comments
Changes:
The 5.52 maintenance release fixes a few minor problems found in the 5.51
release, closes some more security holes, adds a new AtheOS port, and
contains a Win32 extra-field code cleanup that was not finished earlier.
The most important changes are:
- (re)enabled unshrinking support by default, the LZW patents have expired
- fixed an extraction size bug for encrypted stored entries (12 excess bytes
were written with 5.51)
- fixed false "uncompressed size mismatch" messages when extracting encrypted
archive entries
- do not restore SUID/SGID/Tacky attribute bits on Unix (BeOS, AtheOS) unless
explicitely requested by new "-K" command line qualifier
- optional support for "-W" qualifier to modify the pattern matching syntax
(with -W: "*" stops at directory delimiter, "**" matches unlimited)
- prevent buffer overflow caused by bogus extra-long Zipfile specification
- performance enhancements for VMS port
- fixed windll interface handling of its extraction mode qualifiers nfflag,
ExtractOnlyNewer, noflag, PromptToOverwrite; added detailed explanation of
their meanings and interactions to the windll documentation
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)

New features:
5.51a (09 Mar 02):
- no new features
5.51b (11 Jan 03):
- TANDEM: new -r option to suppress extension merging [Dave Smith]
- WinCE, new port in addition to pUnZip (GUI): command line tool usable for
"batch" processes (not quite finished, needs "makefile" cleanup, tests,
and refinements) [Simon Roberts, SPC]
- SET_DIR_ATTRIB feature code revised and reorganized to allow seamless
adaption to different OS environments; added support for restoring
directory timestamps to the WIN32 port [Kai-Uwe-Rommel, SPC]
5.51c (13 May 03):
- WinCE command line tool integration is (almost) finished: project file is
cleaned up and works with VC-embedded 3.0; port needs testing... [SPC]
5.51d (27 Feb 04):
- Cygwin is recognized as a target in the Unix port
[Charles Wilson, Cosmin Truta, SPC]
- remove support for quoting characters from all ports; this feature was a
security hole [SPC]
5.51e (01 Mar 04):
- Win32 port (list.c, unzpriv.h, win32.c, w32cfg.h): the date in (non-ZipInfo)
listings is displayed using the separator given by the system's locale,
when available [Cosmin Truta]

before -lz, ensuring we only link against pkgsrc libz.
fixes a problem on Solaris where the linker would find and use
/usr/lib/libz.so *and* ${LOCALBASE}/lib/libz.so which fails at
runtime because the versions differ.
Pointed out by Jeremy C. Reed (reed at reedmedia dot net) in
PR pkg/19170. Modification: assume that anything that calls itself
*BSD can deal with this flag instead of just dealing with Linux.
(Please check on Darwin and adjust.)
Extract from History.550:
- generic (inflate.c, globals.h, fileio.c, unzpriv.h): integrated support of
Deflate64
- added Deflate64 support to fUnZip
- SFX: made SFX_EXDIR default, added NO_SFXEXDIR option to allow switching
off the "-d exdir" support
- SFX: added simple "execute command after extraction" feature that uses a
command specification supplied with the Zip archive comment, controlled
by the CHEAP_SFX_AUTORUN compile time option
- SFX: slightly refined the CHEAP_SFX_AUTORUN code, switched off SFX_EXDIR
when CHEAP_SFX_AUTORUN is enabled, documented the new autorun feature
- extract.c, TestExtraField(): added crc32 check for PKVMS e.f. type
- extract.c, extract_or_test_entrylist(): added code for "stripping off
absolute path spec" when extracting
- unzip.h, unzip.c; mapname() in all ports except CMS/MVS, Tandem, TOPS20:
added code to strip "../" path components from extracted names and new
option "-:" to allow deactivating this security feature; changed mapname()
calling interface to allow reporting warning error levels to caller
- unzpriv.h, zipinfo.c: rudimentary support for recognizing PKWARE's new
"64-bit size specs" extra field
As well as bug fixes, including the USE_ZLIB problem.
The 5.42 maintance release fixes more bugs and cleans up the redistribution
conditions:
- removal of unreduce.c and amiga/timelib.c code to get rid of the last
distribution restrictions beyond the BSD-like Info-ZIP LICENSE
- new generic timelib replacement (currently used by AMIGA port)
- more reasonable mapping rules of UNIX "leading-dot" filenames to the
DOS 8.3 name convention
- repaired screensize detection in MORE paging code
(was broken for DOS/OS2/WIN32 in 5.41)
changes include some bugfixes, a new BSD-like license, as well as
support for archives with more than 2^16-1 files.
Zlib support still broken, so we use the one coming with the distribution.
