- Some speed optimizations.
- 7-Zip now can unpack .lzma archives.
- Unicode (UTF-8) support for filenames in .ZIP archives.
- Now it's possible to store file creation time in 7z and ZIP archives.
- 7-Zip now can unpack multivolume RAR archives created with
"old style volume names" scheme and names *.001, *.002, ...
- Some bugs were fixed.
from 2.3.6 to 2.3.7
- fixed bug in dar_manager about the localization of the archive in which to fin
d the latest EA
- fixed bug in configure script to properly report full blowfish encryption supp
ort
- fixed a bug in the statistics calculus of dar_manager for most recent files pe
r archive
- removed inappropriate internal error check
- added --disable-libdl-linking option
- fixed mistake in API tutorial
- updated Swedish translation by Peter Landgren
- fixed bug in the file filtering based on listing file ( -[ option )
- fixed typo and spelling errors in documentation
- updated code for clean compilation with gcc-4.2.3
- updated code for clean compilation with gcc-4.3 20080208 (experimental gcc)
from 2.3.7 to 2.3.8
- fixed bug in libdar met when user supply an empty file as a list of file to
include or exclude ( -[ and -] options )
- fixed bug concerning elastic buffers used beside strong encryption. No
security issue here, just in some almost rare situations the generated archive
was not readable (testing your archive prevents you loosing data in this
situation)
- added some speed optimizations
- avoided warning to appear without -v option set, when an error is met while
fetching value of nodump flag (flag not supported on filesystem for example).

1.23 Thu 8 Nov 2007 - Adam Kennedy
- Temporarily skilling some failing tests on Win32 in the
interests of toolchain sanity. (until we work out the
real problem here)
1.22 Fri 2 Nov 2007 - Adam Kennedy
- Fixing platform compatibility bugs in the new regression tests
from 1.21.
1.21 Thu 1 Nov 2007 - Adam Kennedy
- Tidying up copyright formatting a bit.
- Disable the GPBF_HAS_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_MASK bit when auto-switching
directory storage to STORED because of a WinZip workaround because
the read code in Java JAR which was... ok, I really don't understand,
but Roland from Verisign says this one extra line unbreaks JAR files,
so I just applied it :)
- fixed http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=27463 with a
regression test - cannot add files whose entire filenames are "0".
(SHLOMIF).
- fixed http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=26384 with a
regression test - Archive::Zip::MemberRead::getline ignores
$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR . The modified file in the bug had it to be
reworked a bit and tests were added in the file
08_readmember_record_sep.t.
- Thanks to kovesp [...] sympatico.ca
- (SHLOMIF)
1.20 Tue 5 Jun 2007 - Adam Kennedy
- Removing dependency on File::Which due to public outburst of flaming
on cpanra(n)tings by H.Merijn Brand. Try a simple email next time. :(
- Embedding an entire copy of File::Which inside the tests instead as
an alternative to compensating for the lack of build_requires.
- Removing the docs directory.
It only had out of date files and non-free copyrighted materials.
The tarball was probably illegal to distribute as a result.
(reported by Debian devs)
1.19 Internal use, public release skipped
Update prompted: by http://secunia.com/advisories/30394/
... but the previous version in Pkgsrc (0.2.2) wasn't vulnerable, the advisory
only relates to new functionality added in SaraB 0.2.3.
Pkgsrc changes:
- Remove patch-aa, which has been applied upstream via bug 1184476:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1184476&group_id=91804&atid=598441
- Minor pkglinting
=====================================================
05/18/2008 - SaraB version 0.2.4
=====================================================
* Security fix: Encryption ciphers are no longer passed on the dar command line
=====================================================

* Fixes for bugs long mentioned
- much improved mtree support
- fix a number of non-exploitable integer and buffer overflows
- bsdtar get -s and SIGINFO/SIGUSR1 support

pkgsrc:
Fix a bug in the linkresolver for tar format. When linkresolver is done,

the local copy for inode comparision.
