Change most pkgs to depend on either
emulators/suse_linux/Makefile.application (normal pkgs) or
Makefile.common (suse91 and suse themselves) to filter out Operating
Systems without Linux ABI support. Use CPU masks to limit the pkg to
supported platforms.
Version 3.51
1. Bugs fixed:
a) previous version tried to create symbolic links even when
testing an archive;
b) symbolic links unpacked with -ow switch had a wrong owner;
c) RAR failed to restore setuid and setgid access rights
when unpacking files with -ow switch.
Version 3.50
1. New -n<mask> and -n@<listfile> switches set additional include
filters, so only files matching the mask will be processed.
2. New -id[c,d,p,q] switch. Additionally to previously available
-idp switch (disable percentage indicator), switches -idc, -idd
and -idq instruct the console RAR to hide the copyright message,
"Done" message and all information messages.
3. Switch -e+<attr> allows to specify file include attributes mask.
It is possible to use 'd' and 'v' characters in -e[+]<attr> switch
to denote directory and device attributes.
4. Switch -ver[n] supports the optional 'n' parameter also when
archiving. It limits the maximum number of file versions.
Version 3.41
1. When adding new files to already existing RAR solid archive,
RAR 3.40 compression ratio was lower than in RAR 3.30.
Corrected in this version.
2. If archived Unicode name is invalid, RAR 'l' and 'v' commands
display ASCII file name instead of corrupt Unicode.
Version 3.40
1. "Fastest" (-m1) RAR compression method has been modified
to provide much higher compression speed and lower ratio.
It may be useful for tasks requiring the high speed like
regular backups.
You may increase "Fastest" speed even more selecting 64KB
compression dictionary instead of default 4MB.
2. Starting from this version, RAR volumes contain the volume number
field. Volume number is displayed by 'L' and 'V' commands
in the line with the total volume information.
This feature may be useful if original volume names are lost
and you need to rename them to correct names.
3. Commands 'L' and 'V' display NTFS "Compressed" attribute
in archive listing.
4. Switch -ag may include an optional text enclosed in '{' and '}'
characters. This text is inserted into archive name.
For example: -agHH{hours}MM{minutes}
5. Removed the erroneous "CRC error" message when unpacking symlinks
from archive created with -hp<pwd> switch. In fact, such symlinks
were unpacked correctly.
6. RAR displays the operation progress while repairing
an archive containing the recovery record.
RAR is a powerful tool allowing you to manage and control archive
files.
RAR features include:
* Highly sophisticated, original compression algorithm
* Special compression algorithms optimized for text, audio,
graphics data, 32 and 64-bit Intel executables
* Better compression than similar tools, using 'solid' archiving
* Authenticity verification (registered version only)
* Self-extracting archives and volumes (SFX)
* Ability to recover physically damaged archives
* Locking, password, file order list, file security & more ...
