v0.0.7 (2012-06-02):
* Extraction and listing of Unix symbolic links is now supported.
* Decompression code for the "old" PMarc archive algorithm (-pm1-) has
been added.
* Support has been added for Unix LHA level 0 header extended areas
(so level 0 archives with Unix metadata are now listed and extracted
correctly).
* The Unix permissions field in the list output for directory entries
has been fixed.
* The library header files have been fixed so that they can be included
in C++ code.
* The LHADecoder interface, for extracting raw compressed data, has been
added to the public header files.
* The Unix LHA test archives have been regenerated and improved.
* A "ghost testing" tool has been added for testing ghost compression
algorithms such as -pm1-.
* The list output tests have been fixed to be repeatable regardless of
the current date.
* Build of the fuzzer tool has been fixed.
v0.0.6 (2012-05-17):
* When the -w option is used during extraction, the path specified
is now first created if it does not already exist.
* The command line tool now exits with a failure return code if an
error occurs during extraction.
* A "catch-all" header file (lhasa.h) has been added.
* The public header files installed with the library can now be
included and used externally.
* A pkgconfig file is now installed as part of the library
(thanks Jan Engelhardt).
* Make targets have been added for building Doxygen documentation
and including them as part of the distribution.
v0.0.5 (2012-05-08):
* Architecture-specific functions for running on Windows have now been
fully implemented, and the command line tool passes all tests in the
test suite on Windows (thanks roytam1 for bug reports).
* Bug fixed where the command line tool would enter an infinite loop
when extracting a truncated archive (thanks Jon Dowland).
* Support added for archives with level 0 headers and Unix path
separators (thanks roytam1).
* The test suite now runs correctly outside of the Europe/London time
zone (thanks Thomas Klausner).
* A .spec file is now included for building rpm packages.
Lhasa is a library for parsing LHA (.lzh) archives and a free
replacement for the Unix LHA tool.
Currently it is only possible to read from (i.e., decompress)
archives; generating (compressing) LHA archives may be an enhancement
for future versions. The aim is to be compatible with as many
different variants of the LHA file format as possible, including
LArc (.lzs) and PMarc (.pma).
The command line tool aims to be interface-compatible with the
non-free Unix LHA tool (command line syntax and output), for
backwards compatibility with tools that expect particular output.
* Fix allocation in runtime stub for darwin.macho-entry (i386 and amd64).
* Compress shared library on ELF i386 only [ld.so threatens even this case].
* Attempt to suport ELF on QNX 6.3.0 for armel (experimental).
* Better diangostic when ELF -fPIC is needed.
* PT_NOTE improvements for *BSD.
* Preserve more ELF .e_flags on ARM.
* Minor code improvements for ELF stubs
* Defend against another flavor of corrupt PE header.
* bug fixes
because quota-related FFS header reorganization caused the definition
of the FFS struct direct to no longer be visible; however, on older
NetBSD since struct direct and struct dirent diverged (which was some
time back) it would have built successfully unless given -Wall, but
not worked.
dirent rather than the FFS struct direct. As this has been POSIX for
at least twenty years I very, very much doubt there are any exceptions
left in the wild.
Fixes build on NetBSD-current.
Update to 4.1.1
* Convert to use Linux binary on compat_linux, instead of old BSD binary.
Changelog:
* Add some new options (ch etc.)
* Change option's behavior (-o etc.)
* Bugfixes
archivers/p5-Archive-Peek to fulfil requirements of scheduled
devel/p5-Parse-CPAN-Packages update.
This module lets you peek into archives without extracting them.
== 0.1.0
* <b>Add XZ::StreamReader and XZ::StreamWriter for io-like behaviour.</b>
* New dependency on the +io-like+ gem.
* <b>Add Ruby 1.8 compatibility.</b> Thanks to Christoph Plank.
* We now have proper unit tests.
Ark is a program for managing various archive formats within the KDE
environment.
Archives can be viewed, extracted, created and modified from within Ark.
The program can handle various formats such as tar, gzip, bzip2, zip, rar
and lha (if appropriate command-line programs are installed).
Lziprecover is a data recovery tool and decompressor for files in the
lzip compressed data format (.lz) able to repair slightly damaged files,
recover badly damaged files from two or more copies, extract undamaged
members from multi-member files, decompress files and test integrity of
files.
Lziprecover is able to recover or decompress files produced by any of
the compressors in the lzip family; lzip, plzip, minilzip/lzlib, clzip
and pdlzip. This recovery capability contributes to make the lzip format
one of the best options for long-term data archiving.
Lziprecover is able to efficiently extract a range of bytes from a
multi-member file, because it only decompresses the members containing
the desired data.
Lziprecover has been moved to its own package.
Inability to change output file attributes has been downgraded from
error to warning.
Compression time of option "-0" has been reduced by 2%.
A reorganization of the compression code has been made.
A small change has been made in the "--help" output and man page.
Quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU Coding
Standards.
Configure option "--datadir" has been renamed to "--datarootdir" to
follow GNU Standards.
