* Five years have passed since the last release: completely updated
the Autoconf build system, enable Autoconf large file support.
* Warn about a compressed file's trailing zero bytes only if in
verbose mode (for compatibility with recent versions of GNU tar).
* Don't be too strict in favoring stdin - using `--no-stdin' should not
be necessary any longer.
* Added option `-P' to save/restore the path name of a compressed file.
* Added option `--crc32' to use a crc32 instead of a adler32 checksum.
* Fixed an assertion that could happen in very rare cases.
Changes:
- Support for BSDi version 4.x
- Suport for BSDi on sparc
- Support for sparc64 FreeBSD
- Support for i786-cygwin
- Added +DAportable to the HP-UX cc compiler flags
- New Platform 9000-831-hp-ux-cc
- Added floatingpint printing support for OS/2
- Added support for macppc-netbsd-cc NetBSD on MAC
- Workaround for an OpenBSD bug in ctype.h (illegaly #defines EOF)
- Added IPv6 support to 'rmt'
- Better casting for debug printf() in 'rmt'
- Better autoconfiguration for librmt and its users yields in better
compilation and portability results for OS that do not support the
needed internet features for remote tape support.
- Special support for an undocumented but unfortunately important
"feature" for symlinks on HP-UX.
Now star tries to retain the permissions of a symlink by
stting umask() before creating the symlink.
- Fixed a bug that caused star to be unable to correctly deal with
ACLs where the user or group name contains spaces.
- Workaround for reading rotten archives caused by above bug.
- Fixed a bug that caused star to create broken archives if
the POSIX.1-2001 extended format is used for sparse files > 8 GB.
For this reason, a new extended header tag SCHILY.realsize has
been added.
- Fixed a bug that caused star to dump core on UNIX-98 TAR compat mode
with e.g. 'star cbv' because star did not check for the missing arg to
the -b option.
- 'star -n -tpath ...' now only prints the pathnames to allow
to use the ooutput directly in scripts. If you like the old
behavior, use 'star -nv ...'
rebuild the documentation database at install/deinstall time. This means
that:
- PLIST's do not need to call scrollkeeper-{update,rebuilddb} directly;
this is done by a bsd.pkg.install.mk template.
- The share/omf directory is only removed by scrollkeeper, which is the
last package in the dependancy tree.
- PKGREVISION is bumped.
