0.16.0
Backwards Compatibility Notes
Support for Python 3.5 has been dropped. Python 3.6 is now the minimum required Python version.
Changes
Bundled zstd library upgraded from 1.4.8 to 1.5.0.
manylinux2014_aarch64 wheels are now being produced for CPython 3.6+.
Wheels are now being produced for CPython 3.10.
Arguments to ZstdCompressor() and ZstdDecompressor() are now all optional in the C backend and an explicit None value is accepted. Before, the C backend wouldn't accept an explicit None value (but the CFFI backend would). The new behavior should be consistent between the backends

LZ4FrameFile.write()/LZ4FrameDecompressor.decompress() handle buffer protocol correctly

The Unarchiver is an archive unpacker program with support for lots of
archive formats including ZIP, RAR, 7z, tar, gzip, bzip2, LZMA, XZ,
CAB, MSI, NSIS, EXE, ISO, BIN, split file formats, as well as the old
Stuffit, Stuffit X, DiskDouble, Compact Pro, Packit, cpio, compress
(.Z), ARJ, ARC, PAK, ACE, ZOO, LZH, ADF, DMS, LZX, PowerPacker, LBR,
Squeeze, Crunch, and other old/obscure formats.
It can also handle filenames in foreign character sets, created with
non-English versions of some operating systems, and is particularly
useful for processing CJK archives correctly.
This package contains command-line tools for The Unarchiver, namely
lsar and unar.
1.0.1 (2021-11-13)

* Fix an issue with transcode_options that was introduced by Ruby 3 (PR
win93#1 by Alex Gittemeier)

V0.9.0
--------
-Show childless directories whose names contain the filtering string.
-Fixed viewing or removing of files that have wildcard characters in their names
with bsdtar (by escaping some wildcard characters that come after "--include").

-Added read-only support for AppImage bundle through 7z.
-When viewing a file in a password protected archive, ask the password again if
a nonempty, wrong password is entered.

open them.
# 2.2.0
* Header values (of version made by and external attributes) are now
correctly read and written on big-endian systems (#68).
* `zip_list()` now also returns `crc32` and `offset` (#74, @jefferis).
2.3.2 (2021-07-05)
* A "dummy" release to warn about breaking changes coming in version
3.0. This updated version uses the Gem post_install_message instead of
printing to STDERR.
* 2.3.1 (2021-07-03) A "dummy" release to warn about breaking changes coming
in version 3.0.
Changelog from AN-2021-07-29:
- star: A single Linux xattr entry with a zero length value did disable
all Linux xattrs for the related file. This is now handled correctly.
Note that setfattr(1) on some Linux versions does not support to set
empty xattr entries, but star on the same system can extract files
with empty xattr entries.
Thanks to a report from Dennis Katsonis
- star: star -version now prints a new version date
Main changes:
-Now it's possible to drag all selected items, including directories.
-Added an option for only expanding top level directories when loading archives.
-Whether the option "Fit first column into available width" is checked or not,
the first header column is expanded to fill the available width.
-Added a workaround for Qt's problem with scrolling to deep non-expanded tree
items.
-Don't show the header without content.
-Resize columns appropriately on expanding/collapsing a directory item.
-Added application/x-xz, application/x-bzip and application/zstd to the
supported extractions by using 7z.
-Show the compressed size prefixed by ≥ if the file size is missing.
-Added cmake support (in addition to qmake).
Add one post-release patch.
