- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.57:
- Fixed BUG in command line version: -up3 switch could work incorrectly.
- Minor improvement in ZIP compression.
Changes 4.56:
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.56:
- Some bugs were fixed
- On HPUX : fixed "Can't load '../bin/7z.dll'"
- bug: p7zip used to build a zip file with FAT header instead of Unix header
- On AIX : fixed "HugeFiles=off"
- bug 1800180: LZMAlone compilation error in COutFile
- Patch 1796569: Fix FreeBSD FTBFS
- Patch 1796575: fix man1/7za.1 man1/7zr.1 man1/7z.1
Changes within pkgsrc:
(*) While here, add some logic to allow REPLACE_PERL and
REPLACE_BASH to work without USE_TOOLS+="perl bash".
Thus, the paths in share/dar/samples will now [usually]
be correct. Simplify options handling.
(*) Use PTHREAD_AUTO_VARS to ensure harmony with the
rest of pkgsrc, add USE_FEATURES.openssl=threads
when necessary. Threads are enabled if a built-in
thread library is used.
Changes in source (since version 2.3.5):
(*) fixed: Makefile.am in src/dar_suite
(removed "/" after $(DESTDIR))
(*) fixed: bug in regex mask building when not using
ordered masks
(*) fixed: bug that led dar_manager to report no error while
some files failed to be restored due to command-line
for dar being too large.
(*) fixed: bug encountered when user aborts operation while
dar is finalizing archive creation [SF #1800507]
(*) fixed: problem with execvp when dar_manager launches dar
- USER_DESTDIR support added
- new maintainer for the package
- ok'ed by rillig
Changelog:
* important changes in version 1.36 16/9/2007:
- Portability fixes for VMS, as offered by Craig Berry.
- portability fixes
- run format auction only once, simpler and more reliable
- speed up handling of uncompressed archives
- fix skipping of archive entries of exactly 4GB size on 32bit platforms
- fix reading files > 8 GB from tar archives
- many improvements for bsdcpio
then automatically generate a PLIST that says "${PKGNAME} has no files".
* If PLIST_SRC and GENERATE_PLIST are not set in a package Makefile,
and no PLIST files exist, then fail during the package build with
PKG_FAIL_REASON.
* Remove "intentionally empty" PLISTs again.
Now, the easy way to say that a package installs no files is to just
add the following to the package Makefile:
PLIST_SRC= # empty
that directly manipulate empty PLISTs.
Modify plist/plist.mk so that if the PLIST files are missing and no
GENERATE_PLIST is defined, then the package fails to build.
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.55 :
- Some bugs were fixed
- fixed 1789154: 7z use default or -m0=LZMA runtime error under HP-UX IA11.23
- support added for HPUX on Itanium.
Changes 4.54:
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.54:
- Decompression speed was increased
This is a minor release. Changes from 2.3.4 are:
- changed displayed message when adding a hard link to an archive while
performing a differential backup
- added back the possibility to use old blowfish implementation (bfw cipher)
- integrated optimization patch from Sonni Norlov
- updated Swedish translation by Peter Landgren
- updated French translation
- fixed broken Native Language Support in 2.3.x (where x<5)
- bsdcpio now supports most of the older SUSv2 specs [not default yet]
- mtree reader to specify file arguments (experimental)
- handle gtar 1.17 sparse files (instead of the older 1.16)
- refined suid/sgid handling: it is optional if the bits can't be reset
if owner restore is also not requested
- fixes for QNX from Sean Boudreau
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.53 :
- The bug in 7-Zip 4.48 - 4.52 beta was fixed:
7-Zip could create .ZIP archives with broken files.
- Some bugs were fixed.
Changes 4.52:
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.52 :
- 7z now can unpack Compound files (msi, doc, ...).
- Some bugs were fixed (CAB decompressing)
- lzma (CPP/7zip/Compress/LZMA_Alone) is now multi-threaded.
- fixed 632912: Extracting large directories takes quadratic time
(this bug was not fully fixed ...)
- fixed: "7za x -odirectory archive.7z" now works even if "directory" is a symbolic link.
- makefile.linux_s390x added : support for Linux on IBM z/Series Mainframe with s390x CPU
- fixed crashes on BeOs with the flag "@filename"
- cleanup in the makefile : defining LITTLE_ENDIAN or BIG_ENDIAN is not needed anymore
- ppmd.exe added (CPP/7zip/Compress/PPMD_Alone)
of an emulated operating system. Instead of proliferating things like
SUSE_VERSION_REQD, NETBSD_VERSION_REQD, SOLARIS_VERSION_REQD, etc., a
package can say:
EMUL_REQD= suse>=9.1 netbsd>=2.0 solaris>=10
all in one, succinct line.
Pkgsrc changes:
- Use an option group for dar-int32 Vs dar-int64 Vs neither (infinint)
- Default to dar-int64 (the infinint support is excessive, and hugely
expensive)
- REPLACE_FOO doesn't work if FOO isn't a dependency, and we don't want to
pull in Bash and Perl just for a few samples! So, don't replace the
interpreters in the samples, just leave them as is.
ChangeLog from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4:
- fixed behavior when differential backup is interrupted (no more store file
that would have been read if no interruption had been done as "deleted"
since thearchive of reference) [SF #1669091].
- added official method to access catalogue's statistics through the API (for
kdar next version).
- Fixed syntax error in dar_par_create.duc and dar_par_test.duc files
(Parchive integration with dar).
- minor spelling fix in error message (compressor.cpp)
- added Wiebe Cazemier's two patches for dar man page
- integrated patch from Dwayne C. Litzenberger to fix weakness in dar's
implementation of the blowfish encryption.
- improved the returned message when an invalid path is given as argument
- updated doc/sample/sample1.txt script file
Pkgsrc changes:
- none
Changes since version 1.32:
===========================
* important changes in version 1.34 15/8/2007:
- Address #28687: Fwd: Unespected reaction of Archive::Tar
A::T didn't always handle filenames that evaluated to false
(like '0') gracefully. This patch adds a few 'or defined' check
to the A::T codebase and a test to ensure filenames like '0' are
handeled correctly.
- Apply #28407: Unicode and Archive::Tar - documentation patch as
FAQ patch
binary-only packages that require binary "emulation" on the native
operating system. Please see pkgsrc/mk/emulator/README for more
details.
* Teach the plist framework to automatically use any existing
PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM} as part of the default PLIST_SRC definition.
* Convert all of the binary-only packages in pkgsrc to use the
emulator framework. Most of them have been tested to install and
deinstall correctly. This involves the following cleanup actions:
* Remove use of custom PLIST code and use PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM}
more consistently.
* Simplify packages by using default INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts
instead of custom INSTALL/DEINSTALL code.
* Remove "SUSE_COMPAT32" and "PKG_OPTIONS.suse" from pkgsrc.
Packages only need to state exactly which emulations they support,
and the framework handles any i386-on-x86_64 or sparc-on-sparc64
uses.
* Remove "USE_NATIVE_LINUX" from pkgsrc. The framework will
automatically detect when the package is installing on Linux.
Specific changes to packages include:
* Bump the PKGREVISIONs for all of the suse100* and suse91* packages
due to changes in the +INSTALL/+DEINSTALL scripts used in all
of the packages.
* Remove pkgsrc/emulators/suse_linux, which is unused by any
packages.
* cad/lc -- remove custom code to create the distinfo file for
all supported platforms; just use "emul-fetch" and "emul-distinfo"
instead.
* lang/Cg-compiler -- install the shared libraries under ${EMULDIR}
instead of ${PREFIX}/lib so that compiled programs will find
the shared libraries.
* mail/thunderbird-bin-nightly -- update to latest binary
distributions for supported platforms.
* multimedia/ns-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
* security/uvscan -- set LD_LIBRARY_PATH explicitly so that
it's not necessary to install library symlinks into
${EMULDIR}/usr/local/lib.
* www/firefox-bin-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.50 :
- Bug was fixed: 7-Zip 4.50 beta could not open some .7z archives.

Changes since 1.0:
Changes in 1.0.2 (Jul 25, 2007)
- Added support to directly compress files without using threads
when files are smaller than the specified block size or the
system only has 1 CPU. This will speed things up considerably
if you are compressing many small files. You can force this
behaviour by using -p1
- Added support for pbunzip2 symlink to automatically specify
decompression mode
- Changed pbzip2 exit code behaviour to match bzip2 for all error
states (ie: trying to compress a file that already has a .bz2
extension)
Changes in 1.0.1 (Mar 20, 2007)
- Added #ifdef PBZIP_NO_LOADAVG to remove load average code for
UNIX systems that do not support it such as HP-UX and OSF1
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.49 :
- 7-Zip (7z) now can unpack WIM archives
- fixed : On Sparc Solaris, core dump during "7z a -sfx exe.x dir" with p7zip compiled with makefile.solaris_sparc_CC_32
- some code cleanup
- On HPUX, p7zip can get the number of CPU and the size of the memory.
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.48:
- Encryption strength for .7z format was increased.
Now it uses random initialization vectors.
- Some bugs were fixed.
- fixed 1729236: Makefile infrastructure not safe for parallel compilation
(if your make command understands -C and -j4, copy makefile.parallel_jobs over makefile)
- Now the executables are not built with the PIC (position-independent code) flag.
7z.so are still built with the PIC flag.
7za and 7zr are now faster than 7z with 7z.so.
7za, 7zr and 7r are now smaller.
- contrib/gzip-like_CLI_wrapper_for_7z/p7zip now supports spaces in filename
and use 7za instead of 7z.
- contrib/qnx630sp3 added to support QNX built
* important changes in version 1.32 24/5/2007:
- Make Archive::Tar work nicely with perls compiled with
-Dmksymlinks. This also fixes an issue introduced in
1.31 where symlinks weren't dereferenced in all cases.
- Quell warnings when a gid is not resolvable to a group name
* important changes in version 1.31 18/5/2007:
- No longer use the t/setup.t and t/cleanup.t files but just bundle
the binary files; this was done for core integration, but the new
uupacktool.pl script means we dont have to do this anymore
_ Apply core perl Change 30997 by rgs@stcosmo on 2007/04/20 15:03:57
- Address: #27124: Unneeded warning sent when checking for file
inclusion contains_file() will no longer warn to STDERR when a file
is not contained in an archive and $WARN is set to 'true'.
- Address #26492: Dangling symlinks not preserved: Archive::Tar used
to complain about dangling symlinks, unlike standard gnu tar, which
would add them silently. This patch brings A::T's behaviour in line
with gnu tar
- Minor pod fixes
* important changes in version 1.30 8/2/2006:
- applied bleadperl patch: Subject: Change 27416:
Cleanup Archive-Tar temporary test files
- address #17985: INSTALLDIRS needs to be 'perl' for >= perl-5.9.3
- address #18296: Archive::Tar 1.29 PATCH for VMS to fix test case
failure in 99_pod.t
(it's actually a File::Find bug, but this patch works around that)
- address: #18720 ([PATCH] Archive::Tar creates POSIX style tar files
unnecessarily and by default, leading to compatibility problems
particularly with WinZip.)
patch rejected, docpatch added with FAQ and SEE ALSO
- apply performance patch from #20399 to enable the user to
avoid repeated calls to cwd() if desired.

the 64-bit packages by default.
Known packages working are opera (does not require any change in Makefile)
and rar-bin.
Tested by some, closes PR pkg/35477 by Michai Chelaru (which provided
a patch more or less than this one).

options.
Upgrading to 2.3.3 is strongly recommended if you use Dar to backup across
multiple filesystems:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.dar.announce/31
Changelog entry from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3:
- avoid using getpwuid() and getgrgid() for static linking.
- fixed typo in dar's man page
- update FAQ
- fixed bug: uncaught exception thrown when CTRC-C was hit while dar waits an
answer from the user [SF #1612205]
- fixed bug: unusable archive generated when CTRC-C was hit and blowfish
encryption used [SF #1632273]
- added a check to verify that the libdar used is compatible with the current
dar suite programs [SF #1587643]
- fixed bug: added workaround for the right arithmetic shift operator (the
binary produced by gcc-3.4.2 produces computes "v>>s" equal to "v" when when
v is a integer field composed of s exactly bits. It should rather compute it
to zero...).
this problem leads 32 bits generated archive incompatible with 64 bits
generated archive only when blowfish is used.
- fixed bug met when the inode space is exhausted, thanks to "Jo - Ex-Bart" for
this new feedback. [SF #1632738]
- replaced &, <, >, ' and " in XML listing by &...; corresponding sequence.
[SF #1597403]
- dar_manager can receive arguments after stick to -o options (it is an error
in regard to documentation, but no warning was issued in that case, leading
to confusion for some users) [SF #1598138]
- updated Veysel Ozer's automatic_backup script
- fixed hard link detection problem [SF #1667400]
- verbose output did not displayed hard links information
- merged patch on dar_cp by Andrea Palazzi to have it to return EXIT_DATA_ERROR
when some data have been reported [SF #1622913]

the readability and maintainability of the files.
- Added license in Makefile.PL
- Added some additional entries to the realclean files
2.00 Wed Apr 13 16:33:35 2005
This is a complete re-write of Compress::Bzip2. I left the in-memory
compress routines much as is, compress and decompress.
(re)created by h2xs 1.23 with options
-b 5.6.0 -n Compress::Bzip2 bzlib.h
I wanted Compress::Zlib compatibility cause I have s/w that uses
Compress::Zlib and I wanted an easy migration path, since bzlib gives
about 20-30% better compression on ascii files than gzip.
This is a 2.x release. Since there was a change in authorship, I
figured I should bump the major version number. I could have easily
given this a slightly different name. Given the minimal functionality
of version 1, that didn't seem like a useful thing to do. Heck,
version 1 doesn't even work with bzlib 1.x, you have to patch in the
BZ2_ prefixes, so my guess is that Compress::Bzip2 isn't being used
in a lot of places.
2.01 Sat Apr 23 2005
- cleaned up for 64bit, HPUX PA-RISC 2.0W and itanium
- fleshed out the Compress::Zlib compatibility, added a
couple of tests for it.
- added bzip2, bunzip2 and bzcat, which act like the bzip
commands.
- added some compatibility for windows, can't test it out really
- added the bzlib library underneath
- changed the test suite so that it does not rely on bzip2
being installed.
- added a test to the Makefile.PL to determine whether or
not the internal Bzlib is necessary.
2.02 Sat Apr 23 2005
- 2.01 rejected by PAUSE because the META.yml was invalid
- learned how to do "make dist"
2.03 Sun Apr 24 2005
- didn't have config.in in the MANIFEST, the tarball was unbuildable.
- rewrote the INSTALL, README to give help on the config.in options
for locating your bzip2 installation.
2.04 Mon Apr 25 2005
- tested different styles of builds. confirmed some errors in the
Makefile.PL test for bzip2 that were pointed out by Sisyphus.
- Sisyphus reported some changes necessary for windows builds. I
injected those changes into the code. one of them, adding
aTHX_ to the call to PerlIO_binmode seems like a perl version
thing.
- added tests for internal_bzlib, copied from bzip2 1.0.2.
2.05 Wed Apr 27 2005
- cleaned up the pod so it's more presentable online.
- win32 builds - the eye of the needle. Sisyphus has been doing most of
the work.
- cater to win32 nmake - :: ok but $^ not
- cater to win32 dmake - :: bad but $^ ok
- cater to win32 - use File::Spec catfile and rel2abs all over the place
2.06 Fri Apr 29 2005
- build for bzip2.exe fine tuning for win32 nmake
2.07 Sun May 1 2005
- bzlib-src/Makefile.PL had a stupid mistake in it that shows up for
win32 nmake. I can't test that stuff out. Plus, got some new
info from Sisyphus, so tossed my scribble and put in something
known to work.
- implemented Compress::Bzip2 1.03 compatibility layer to encompass
the post-1.00 development thread taken by Marco Carnut and David
Robins. Made an effort to include the three .t test files asis.
- Why? Cause I found that PerlIO::via::Bzip2, by Arjen Laarhoven,
is built on the streaming interface of 1.03. From looking over
it, I gather it redirects a 1.03 compression/decompression stream
to/from a file. It doesn't do the extra bit of fiddling with the
trailers to make the resultant file usable by the bzip2 commands.
Additionally, the 1.03 decompress stream doesn't handle the pause
when an embedded EOF marker is found, which is an issue for files
larger than the buffer size (900k by default).
So, I figured it would be easy to provide a compatibility layer
for packages that use 1.03. By using my stuff, the headers and
trailers would be automatically taken care of, as would the EOF
marker. Something like PerlIO::via::Bzip2 would then
interoperate with bzip2 commands. Sure, I think bzread and bzwrite
are better choices for file IO, but this is perl, right? There has
to be at least 10 ways to do the same thing.
2.08 Wed May 11 2005
- Sisyphus got the win32 nmake problem licked. merging his stuff in.
- perldoc changes for bzip2 1.03 compatibility.
- got ownership of the module on cpan
2.09 Tue Aug 9 2005
- change email addy
- patch for test 041-error.t, thanks to Dave Evans
- prototype error for bzwrite, limit variable was not optional, thanks
to Christian Drauch for pointing this out.
Also install some documents and examples.

Sep 05, 2006: libarchive 1.3.1 released
Sep 5, 2006: Bump version to 1.3 for new I/O wrappers.
Sep 4, 2006: New memory and FILE read/write wrappers.
Sep 4, 2006: libarchive test harness is now minimally functional;
it's located a few minor bugs in error-handling logic
Fix a denial of service security issue via FreeBSD:
If the end of an archive is reached while attempting to "skip" past a
region of an archive, libarchive will enter an infinite loop wherein it
repeatedly attempts (and fails) to read further data.
(which also installs cpio).
This is for my old PR #22693.
(Note I did this different than I did the gtar-base package
which has an another optional setting for choosing the prefix
for gtar which installs gtar with "g" if GNU_PROGRAM_PREFIX is empty.
If that is needed for gcpio also, let me know.)
Patch provided by Martin Wilke via PR 34430.
- Changelog
from 2.3.0 to 2.3.1
- set back Nick Alcock's patch which has been dropped from
2.2.x to 2.3.x (patch name is "Do not moan about every
single file on a non-ext2 filesystem")
- fixed compilation problem when thread-safe code is disabled
- integrated Wiebe Cazemier's patch for dar's man page
- fixed bug in listing: -as option also listed files that
had EA even when theses were not saved in the archive
- file permission of installed sample scripts lacked the
executable bit
- fixed a bug that appeared when a file is removed while at
the time it is saved by dar
- avoid having an unnecessary warning appearing when
restoring a file in a directory that has default EA set
- Cygwin has changed and does not support anymore the path
in the form "c:/some/where", you have to use
"/cygdrive/c/some/where" instead. Documentation has been
updated in consequence.
- From Windows version of 7-zip 4.43 :
- 7-Zip now can use multi-threading mode for compressing to .ZIP archives.
- ZIP format supporting was improved.
- 7-Zip now supports WinZip-compatible AES-256 encryption for .ZIP archives.
- 7-Zip now uses order list (list of extensions) for files sorting for compressing
to .7z archives. It can slightly increase compression ratio in some cases.
- 7-Zip now restores modification time of folders during .7z archives extracting.
- Some bugs were fixed.
- fixed : the user can now see the percentage indicator.
- support added for Tru64 / OSF 5.1 (makefile.tru64)
- small fix in install.sh (7zr install)
- fix "make all" now build 7za and 7zCon.sfx following the README.
* The "-t" archive integrity checking option has been added. This was
requested by several users. cabextract can unpack cabinet files and give
you MD5 checksums of the files inside, without writing the unpacked
files to disk.
* Large files (more than 2 gigabytes) are now correctly searched for
cabinet files.
* A security vulnerability has been fixed. Files compressed with the
Quantum method, using a window size less than 32768 bytes, could cause
cabextract to write beyond the end of the window and cause a
segmentation fault. This fix also permits cabextract to unpack this type
of cabinet file (of which only one has been found in the wild) correctly.
* The unnecessary GNU source mempcpy.c, which caused compilation
failures on several systems, was removed.
* An off-by-one error introduced in 1.1's UTF-8 decoder was fixed. Files
with UTF-8 filenames can now be extracted. The UTF-8 decoder was also
upgraded to support the latest Unicode characer maps.
1. New 'ch' (change archive parameters) command line mode command.
Its purpose is to apply switches like -av, -tl and -cl to archive.
2. New command line -sl<size> and -sm<size> switches to set size
limits of processing files.
3. 7Z added to list of formats stored without compression
when using -ms switch without a parameter.
4. Switch -e[+]<attr> is now supported by most of command line
operations including extracting and deleting files. Previously
it was supported by only archiving command.
