Archangel is an archiver for 2005 and beyond. Some features are:
+ cross-platform
+ individually {compressed,bzip2ed,gzipped} entries
+ individually {signed,encrypted,signed+encrypted} entries
+ entries can be padded to arbitrary lengths
All in all, a combination of zip, tar, and gpg on steroids
You can now backup files, and not be worried about people reading them,
either in transit or at their destination.
Entries have a maximum size of 1 MB (by default) internally, so that
media problems mean that you can recover the parts that aren't affected.
LZO is a portable lossless data compression library written in ANSI
C. It offers pretty fast compression and very fast decompression.
Decompression requires no memory.
In addition there are slower compression levels achieving a quite
competitive compression ratio while still decompressing at this
very high speed.
The LZO algorithms and implementations are copyrighted OpenSource
distributed under the GNU General Public License.
Changes:
- Verify CRC after decompressions.
- Fix a bug in crypto code.
- Error handling for non-ALZ files.
- Fix a buffer overflow in UTF-8 filesystem.
- Fix a bug in GetFileList().
Version 4.20
============
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.19 and 4.20 :
- BZip2 code was rewritten. Now it supports 3 modes: Normal, Maximum and
Ultra. In Normal mode it compresses almost as original BZip2 compressor.
Compression ratio in Maximum and Ultra modes is 1-3% better for some files,
but Maximum Mode is about 3 times slower and Ultra Mode is about 8 times
slower than Normal mode.
- Console version now prints all messages to stdout by default,
and if -so switch is specified, 7-Zip prints messages to stderr.
- Some bugs were fixed
- Updating "contrib/VirtualFileSystemForMidnightCommander/" with u7z-4.16beta.tar.bz2
- bug #1204993 (does not find broken filenames)
- bug #1201244 (Missing files in p7zip_4.18_x86_linux_bin.tar.bz2)
- makefile.linux_x86_ppc_alpha : flag "-fPIC" added
- flag "-l" added.
without : p7zip stores symlinks (like p7zip 4.18)
with "-l" : p7zip stores the files/directories pointed by symlinks (like before p7zip 4.18)
CAUTION : the scanning stage can never end because of symlinks like ".."
(ex: ln -s .. ldir)
USE_TOOLS and any of "autoconf", "autoconf213", "automake" or
"automake14". Also, we don't need to call the auto* tools via
${ACLOCAL}, ${AUTOCONF}, etc., since the tools framework takes care
to symlink the correct tool to the correct name, so we can just use
aclocal, autoconf, etc.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
- Further robustification against corrupted compressed data.
There are currently no known bitstreams which can cause the
decompressor to crash, loop or access memory which does not
belong to it. If you are using bzip2 or the library to
decompress bitstreams from untrusted sources, an upgrade
to 1.0.3 is recommended.

- The documentation has been converted to XML, from which html
and pdf can be derived.
- Various minor bugs in the documentation have been fixed.
- Fixes for various compilation warnings with newer versions of
gcc, and on 64-bit platforms.

This has been fixed.
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.18 and 4.17 :
- minor fixes
- p7zip can now store and restore :
- symbolic links,
- file permission bits
Remark : for directory, restored_perm = stored_perm | 0700 .
- fix in install.sh
- On MacOSX, p7zip now restore times of a file.
- more detailed errors during scanning stage.
Version 4.16
============
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.16 :
- Speed optimization (5%) for 7z / LZMA
- 7za now supports .Z archives
- -r- switch in command line now is default for all commands
- Some bugs were fixed
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.15 :
- Z format supporting (extracting only)
- 7-Zip now can extract ZIP archives compressed with "Shrink" method
- 7-Zip now doesn't interrupt the compressing when it can not open file.
7-Zip just skips that file and shows warning.
- Some bugs were fixed
- man pages added (thanks to Mohammed Adnene Trojette)
- bug #1112167 fixed (Temporary directory must be on same partition as target)
p7zip failed moving the temporary file at the end of
compressing to target file if the directories don't reside
on the same partition (or network path).
- bug #1164659 fixed (Invalid file date for "big endian" machine)
- p7zip now uses ".so" instead of ".dll"
- p7zip now handles "ctrl-c" and "kill" to cleanup temporary files before exiting
- p7zip now runs on BeOS.
- better support of filenames with spaces.
- some code cleanup
- "myWindows/myFiles.cpp" is now in "Windows/FileIO.cpp"
- "myWindows/myFindFile.cpp" is now in "Windows/FileFind.cpp"
- "myWindows/myDirectoryAndPath.cpp" is now in "Windows/FileDir.cpp"
- "myWindows/myEvents.cpp" is now in "Windows/Synchronization.cpp"
- "myWindows/wine_strings.cpp" is now in "Windows/String.cpp"
"A vulnerability in GNU Sharutils was reported, which can be potentially
exploited by malicious, local users to conduct certain actions on
a vulnerable system with escalated privileges."
Patch from Debian. Bump PKGREVISION.
"Multiple buffer overflows in sharutils 4.2.1 and earlier may allow attackers
to execute arbitrary code via long output from wc to shar, or unknown vectors
in unshar."
Patch from SuSE/Gentoo. Also add more sanity checking patches from the latter.
New in 0.9.2:
* Created workaround for a major pthreads problem (on Linux at
least) that would cause segfaults and missed signals in the
pthreads library itself when mutexes or signals were
created/destroyed too quickly. This used to happen when
processing multiple files, but now pbzip2 only generates its
mutexes and signals at the beginning and reuses the same ones
for multiple files. Special thanks to George Chalissery for help
with this one.
* Increased size of BZIP2 header match from 56 bits to 72 bits for
more accurate detection
* Modified some buffers to use the vector class for easier memory
management and to eliminate one read pass of the input data for
decompression so should be slightly faster.
* Now checks if input file exists before checking if output file
already exists (when not using -f)
* Now checks to ensure input is regular file and not a directory
before processing
* Now deletes input file only if output file exists and is greater
than 0 bytes (-k will always preserve input file)
* Now checks input file for bzip2 header before trying to
decompress file
* Minor code cleanup
New in 0.9.1
* Fixed bug: -c switch now implies -k so input file is not deleted
when data is output to stdout
New in 0.9.0:
* Added -c switch for data output to stdout
* Added -t switch to test integrity of compressed data
* Added autodetection for # of CPUs on supported platforms and
made detected value default # CPUs to use
* Fixed bug where pbzip2 processed 0 byte files
* Tried to make program exit codes the same as bzip2

Needed for NetBSD-1.6.2. Approved by wiz.
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
Bug fixes:
-- Few bugs that caused overflow of the output buffer were fixed.
New features:
-- For information about changes in the SZIP source code see
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/doc_resource/SZIP/Release_notes_2_0.pdf
-- This release supports shared libraries.
See "Known problems" section for additional information.

Version 4.14.01
===============
- huge speed up for multi CPUs machines (Thanks to loderunner - http://sourceforge.net/users/loderunner/).
- some code cleanup
- Fix problems with link files or directories.
- "7z a dummy -tgzip -so Doc.txt > archive.gz" now works.
- in the messages, the path separator is now '/' instead of '\'.
Version 4.14
============
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.14 :
- STL using was reduced
- 7za now supports Split(001) archives
- "7za | more" now works
- Bugs item #1093095 : Usage banner now says "7za" (instead of "7z") when the binary is "7za"
- use of AString instead of std::string (no more need of #include <string>")
- makefile.linux_gcc_2.95_no_need_for_libstdc added to build 7za for the
p7zip*_bin.tar.bz2 package.
7za provided by p7zip*_bin.tar.bz2 is build on Debian 3.0 with gcc 2.95.4
and should now find the locale on all kinds of Linux (Debian, Fedora, Mandrake, ...).
Libarchive is a programming library that can create and read several
different streaming archive formats, including most popular tar
variants and several cpio formats. It can also write shar archives
and read ISO9660 CDROM images.
See http://people.freebsd.org/~kientzle/libarchive/
this, we only need some simple logic in java-env.mk to automatically
generate an ALTERNATIVES file for us.
There are two exceptions, though: fastjar and jikes (pointed out by tv@),
which do not use this file; they have to be handled manually.
Bump PKGREVISION for all affected packages.
While doing this, remove the java-wrapper package, obsoleted by the new
functionality provided by pkg_alternatives.
gettext 0.11+ has renamed internal symbols, and gsharutils is
being a very bad neighbor by using them directly. To fix, force
use of gettext >= 0.11, and rename the symbol in gsharutils.
The pbzip2 program is a parallel version of bzip2 for use on shared
memory machines. It provides near-linear speedup when used on true
multi-processor machines and 5-10% speedup on Hyperthreaded machines.
The output is fully compatible with the regular bzip2 data so any
files created with pbzip2 can be uncompressed by bzip2 and vice-versa.

version 1.15.1 - Sergey Poznyakoff, 2004-12-21
This version fixes a bug introduced in 1.15 which caused
tar to refuse to extract files from standard input.
version 1.15 - Sergey Poznyakoff, 2004-12-20
* Compressed archives are recognised automatically, it is no longer
necessary to specify -Z, -z, or -j options to read them. Thus, you can
now run `tar tf archive.tar.gz'.
* When restoring incremental dumps, --one-file-system option
prevents directory hierarchies residing on different devices
from being purged.
With the previous versions of tar it was dangerous to create
incremental dumps with --one-file-system option, since they
would recursively remove mount points when restoring from the
back up. This change fixes the bug.
* Renamed --strip-path to --strip-components for consistency with
the GNU convention.
* Skipping archive members is sped up if the archive media supports
seeks.
* Restore script starts restoring only if it is given --all (-a) option,
or some patterns. This is to prevent accidental restores.
* `tar --verify' prints a warning if during archive creation some of
the file names had their prefixes stripped off.
* New option --exclude-caches instructs tar to exclude cache directories
automatically on archive creation. Cache directories are those
containing a standardized tag file, as specified at:
http://www.brynosaurus.com/cachedir/spec.html
* New configure option --with-rmt allows to specify full path name to
the `rmt' utility. This supercedes DEFAULT_RMT_COMMAND variable
introduced in version 1.14
* New configure variable DEFAULT_RMT_DIR allows to specify the directory
where to install `rmt' utility. This is necessary since modifying
--libexecdir as was suggested for version 1.14 produced a side effect: it
also modified installation prefix for backup scripts (if
--enable-backup-scripts was given).
* Bugfixes:
** Fixed flow in recognizing files to be included in incremental dumps.
** Correctly recognize sparse archive members when used with -T option.
** GNU multivolume headers cannot store filenames longer than 100 characters.
Do not allow multivolume archives to begin with such filenames.
** If a member with link count > 2 was stored in the archive twice,
previous versions of tar were not able to extract it, since they
were trying to link the file to itself, which always failed and
lead to removing the already extracted copy. Preserve the first
extracted copy in such cases.
** Restore script was passing improper argument to tar --listed option (which
didn't affect the functionality, but was logically incorrect).
** Fixed verification of created archives.
** Fixed unquoting of file names containing backslash escapes (previous
versions failed to recognize \a and \v).
** When attempting to delete a non-existing member from the archive, previous
versions of tar used to overwrite last archive block with zeroes.
user, so it's not nice to try to use an option that will try to chown if
the repository isn't owned by the builder.
(Some OS's do in fact cause an error when the chown in "cp -p" fails.)
The Palm database archiver (pdbar) creates and manipulates PalmOS
database (.pdb) and resource (.prc) files. Pdbar is designed to be a
Swiss army knife for managing these files. It's a command line tool,
and not for the faint of heart, but it's very handy and replaces a
bunch of little utilities that you might otherwise use.

unalz is a multi platform open-source ALZ extractor. It is a console
version of tzip (http://www.kipple.pe.kr/win/tzip/), and extracts .alz
files. Unalz supports alz, bzip2, and raw formats, multiple volume
archives (alz, a00, a01, ...), large files (over 2GB). Currently, it
does not support password-protected archives and CRC checking.

Version 4.12
============
- new port of 7za from the source of 7za 4.12Beta for Windows
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.11 and 4.12 :
- 7-Zip now supports Zip64 extension of ZIP format. So now it's
possible to compress files bigger than 4 GB to ZIP archives.
- Some bugs were fixed
- fix "7za a archive.7z file" that added all the files and directories
with filename "file", "FILE", "File" ...
- p7zip now displays the locale (ex : en_US.UTF-8) in the banner.
- new flag "-no-utf16" to avoid lossly conversion in filenames.
CAUTION : use this flag when you do not plan to export your archive.
- support creation of self extracting archive.
- better support of symbolic link (now, an invalid symbolic link
do not stop archiving but displays a warning).
- better support of files that the user cannot read.
(now this kind of file is not added to the archive, and p7zip displays a warning).
- return of 7z and its plugins.
- support of listing/testing/extracting files from a splitted archive (only with 7z).
- support of MacOX X 10.X.
- creation of Gzip/Tar archives didn't work on Linux Alpha.
- see "contrib/VirtualFileSystemForMidnightCommander/readme" to use 7za with "mc".
Version 4.10
============
- new port of 7za from the source of 7za 4.10Beta for Windows
=> p7zip now work on big endian CPU.
- 7z for Unix is not maintain anymore (because as the source of unrar plugin for 7z
is not available, 7z is unless on Unix).
Version 0.91
============
- add support for FreeBSD 5.2.1
In Windows/Time.h add "#include <time.h>"
and prototype change for FileTimeToUnixTime()
- bug 990684 Corrected : support of filesystem
that support case sensitive filenames.
Example, since version 0.91 :
"7z a glibc -r glibc-2.3.2"
does not terminate with error :
Duplicate filename:
glibc-2.3.2\sysdeps\m88k\m88100\add_n.S
glibc-2.3.2\sysdeps\m88k\m88100\add_n.s
Version 0.90
============
- build of 7z.exe and its DLL.
7z.exe support more archive formats than 7za.exe
thanks to DLL in Formats and Codecs directories
- "#pragma once" is now in comments
- mainly For OpenBSD :
- add #include <wchar.h> in include_windows/winnt.h
- remove stuff for GUID_SECTION and GUID_SECT in include_windows/basetyps.h
and include_windows/initguid.h
- some changes in 7zip/Crypto/aesopt.h because of endian.h
Version 0.81
============
- add a copy of the help of 7-zip (see html directory)
- "7z a -r tmp.7z directory" works as expected.
no more need for commands like : 7z a -r tmp.7z "directory/*"
- 7z restores the date of each files (but not directories)
- 7z supports UNICODE filenames (version 0.80 supports only ASCII/Latin1 filenames)
- support of gcc 2.95
- support of gcc 3.4
- 7z needs no more libgen.h (dirname() and basename())
- less "Internal Error #7" during arguments parsing
- minor change in class CThread
While here add HOMEPAGE.
Changes since last packaged version (1.10)

is not interpreted as contents of the symlink (bug #7937)
- Strip high bits from the mode of the file, as they are stored
differently in the tar header
- Make Archive::Tar be kinder to archives that contain garbage,
proceeding anyway as long as that's possible.
* important changes in version 1.20 8/11/2004:
This release holds mostly bugfixes, in the form of a rewrite of
the handling of the 'prefix' header field.
- Rewrote 02_methods.t to be more independant
- Rewrote the way 'prefix' headers are dealt with
- Require IO::String now to do archive stringification
- Add new method 'full_path' to A::T::Item objects
- this is used to fix bug 6938
- A::T->new now accepts both a class and an object to be friendlier
to users
- On tar read errors, binary chunks are no longer dumped to STDOUT,
but instead the error offset is reported
- added protection code against bad_alloc exception
- new configure option to bypass libdl test
- removed expected exception list in deci, limitint, real_infinint
and storage modules to improve global robustness
- remove the #pragma implementation/interface directives
which tend today to become obsolete, and seems to be the
cause of compilation problem on (recent) Linux kernel 2.6.7
for example.
- added protection code to report bug conditions
- code simplification for filesystem reading (while performing
backup)
- fixed bug #29 (crash when saving hard link without read
permission)
- fixed code syntax to support gcc-3.4.x
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.
anywhere, yet configure.ac declared an AC_REPLACE_FUNCS() for it. Rip out
the offending code from configure until it is rebuilt at the source.
(Patch to remove the AC_REPLACE_FUNCS submitted to author.)
version 2.8.3
-------------
* Fixed extraction without folders recreation.
version 2.8.2
-------------
* Avoid opening remote files in nautilus.
version 2.8.1
-------------
* Fixed bug #153837: Internal viewer vs. other application question is
asked for files that internal viewer can't even handle.
* Do not ask whether to use the internal viewer when there is a
registered application for the file type.
* Fixed bug #151113: crash trying to open zip file for extraction
* Fixed bug #152900: Multiple file/folder drag and drop needs to be
improved.
* A security vulnerability has been fixed. If the files within a
cabinet file include "../" in their filenames, this will be
changed to "xx/", so cabinets cannot access the parent directory
of where you want to extract them.
* cabextract should now compile cleanly on AIX and Cygwin.

Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above

gtar man page which we're using in the package)
version 1.14 - Sergey Poznyakoff, 2004-05-11
* Added support for POSIX.1-2001 and ustar archive formats.
* New option --format allows to select the output archive format
* The default output format can be selected at configuration time
by presetting the environment variable DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_FORMAT.
Allowed values are GNU, V7, OLDGNU and POSIX.
* New option --strip-path allows to cut off a given number of
path elements from the name of the file being extracted.
* New options --index-file, --no-overwrite-dir. The --overwrite-dir
option is now the default; use --no-overwrite-dir if you prefer
the previous default behavior.
* The semantics of -o option is changed. When extracting, it
does the same as --no-same-owner GNU tar option. This is compatible
with UNIX98 tar. Otherwise, its effect is the same as that of
--old-archive option. This latter is deprecated and will be removed
in future.
* New option --check-links prints a message if not all links are dumped
for a file being archived. This corresponds to the UNIX98 -l option.
The current semantics of the -l option is retained for compatibility
with previous releases, however such usage is strongly deprecated as
the option will change to its UNIX98 semantics in the future releases.
* New option --occurrence[=N] can be used in conjunction with one of
the subcommands --delete, --diff, --extract or --list when a list of
files is given either on the command line or via -T option. This
option instructs tar to process only the Nth occurrence of each named
file. N defaults to 1, so `tar -x -f archive --occurrence filename'
extracts the first occurrence of `filename' from `archive'
and terminates without scanning to the end of the archive.
* New option --pax-option allows to control the handling of POSIX
keywords in `pax' extended headers. It is equivalent to `pax'
-o option.
* --incremental and --listed-incremental options work correctly on
individual files, as well as on directories.
* New scripts: backup (replaces old level-0 and level-1) and restore.
The scripts are compiled and installed if --enable-backup-scripts
option is given to configure.
* By default tar searches "rmt" utility in "$prefix/libexec/rmt",
which is consistent with the location where the version of "rmt"
included in the package is installed. Previous versions of tar
used "/etc/rmt". To install "rmt" to its traditional location,
run configure with option --libexecdir=/etc. Otherwise, if you
already have rmt installed and wish to use it, instead of the
shipped in version, set the variable DEFAULT_RMT_COMMAND to
the full path name of the utility, e.g. ./configure
DEFAULT_RMT_COMMAND=/etc/rmt.
Notice also that the full path name of the "rmt" utility to
use can be set at runtime, by giving option --rmt-command to
tar.
* Removed obsolete command line options:
** --absolute-paths superseded by --absolute-names
** --block-compress is not needed any longer
** --block-size superseded by --blocking-factor
** --modification-time superseded by --touch
** --read-full-blocks superseded by --read-full-records
** --record-number superseded by --block-number
** --version-control superseded by --backup
* New message translations fi (Finnish), gl (Galician), hr (Croatian),
hu (Hungarian), ms (Malaysian), nb (Norwegian), ro (Romanian), sk
(Slovak), zh_CN (Chinese simplified), zh_TW (Chinese traditional).
The code 'no' for Norwegian (Bokmål) has been withdrawn; use 'nb' instead.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".

the user to create new folders in the archive.
* Added content size and compression ratio in the properties dialog.
* Extract selection without creating the whole path. (bug #140971)

rzip is a compression program, similar in functionality to gzip or
bzip2, but able to take advantage long distance redundencies in files,
which can sometimes allow rzip to produce much better compression
ratios than other programs.
Introduce HAVE_FILE_FLAGS if the system declares UF_SETTABLE and SF_SETTABLE
in addition to member 'st_flags' of struct stat. Use HAVE_FILE_FLAGS instead
of HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_FLAGS.
This avoids confusion on UnixWare which has 'st_flags' but does _not_ support
file flags.
from previous include:
- include a pax2nbcompat script to ease importing from src HEAD
into pkgsrc.
* for copy mode, show more meaningful information on SIGINFO.
version of libnbcompat instead of requiring libnbcompat to be installed.
This simplifies testing of bootstrap packages without root privileges
on a system that has already been bootstrapped.
include:
- Make new() comply with the documentation and return undef on
a read() failure.
- Re-adds bin/ptar, which disappeared from this distribution after
0.22 (sorry about that).
- Fix a file renaming bug that forgot to carry over path info
- Fix a bug where adding dirs on win32 gave 'permission denied'
- Add extra tests explicilty for Archive::Tar::File
- Move completely from FileHandle to IO::File
- Quell some annoying warnings about binmode on unopened filehandles
- Add tests for binary files included in a tarball
- The chown() code somehow didn't make it into the 1.05 release
- Patch _get_handle() to treat all IO::File handles as binary.
This should make win32 users happy
- A method called 'contains_file' that will tell you if a certain file
is already in the archive.
- Add a global variable $CHOWN that controls whether Archive::Tar
should attempt to chown() files or not when it can.
- NULL-byte padding was done also on files that had no real content,
like symlinks, thus ending up with a number of bytes not dividable
by 512.
- Always do a readlink on the full path, never just the file
- Make Archive::Tar write proper headers when dealing with symlinks
For this $Archive::Tar::FOLLOW_SYMLINKS is introduced
Changes since 3.10.20:
* arj_arcv.c, arj_file.c, arj_proc.c, arj_user.c, arjtypes.c,
environ.c, externs.c, externs.h, makefile:
Merged with the remaining part of TCO fixes to make up for 3.10.21
* defines.h, encode.c, environ.c, environ.h, fmemcmp.asm, misc.c,
rearj.c: Resync with TCO to close any outstanding bugs
* arj.c: Rudimentary Borland code caused the filenames in argv[] to
be mishandled under Win32
* register.c: REGISTER might fail due to _fput_* changes
So you thought you had your files backed up onto that jaz cartridge -
until it came time to restore. Then you found out that you had bad
sectors and you've lost almost everything because gzip craps out 10%
of the way through your archive. The gzip Recovery Toolkit has a program
- gzrecover - that attempts to skip over bad data in a gzip archive and
to GNU tar that enables that program to skip over bad data and extract
whatever files might be there.
