pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F
With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.
This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
Changes in version 1.21:
Detection of forbidden combinations of characters in trailing data has been
improved.
Errors are now also checked when closing the input file.
Lzip now compiles on DOS with DJGPP. (Patch from Robert Riebisch).
The descriptions of '-0..-9', '-m' and '-s' in the manual have been
improved.
The configure script now accepts appending options to CXXFLAGS using the
syntax 'CXXFLAGS+=OPTIONS'.
It has been documented in INSTALL the use of
CXXFLAGS+='-D __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO' when compiling on MinGW.
Changes in version 1.20:
The option '--loose-trailing', has been added.
The test used by lzip to discriminate trailing data from a corrupt
header in multimember or concatenated files has been improved to a
Hamming distance (HD) of 3, and the 3 bit flips must happen in different
magic bytes for the test to fail. As a consequence some kinds of files
no longer can be appended to a lzip file as trailing data unless the
'--loose-trailing' option is used when decompressing.
Lziprecover can be used to remove conflicting trailing data from a file.
The contents of a corrupt or truncated header found in a multimember
file are now shown, after the error message, in the same format as
trailing data.
Option '-S, --volume-size' now keeps input files unchanged.
When creating multimember files or splitting the output in volumes, the
dictionary size is now adjusted for each member individually.
The 'bits/byte' ratio has been replaced with the inverse compression
ratio in the output.
The progress of decompression is now shown at verbosity level 2 (-vv) or
higher.
Progress of (de)compression is only shown if stderr is a terminal.
A final diagnostic is now shown at verbosity level 1 (-v) or higher if
any file fails the test when testing multiple files.
A second '.lz' extension is no longer added to the argument of '-o' if
it already ends in '.lz' or '.tlz'.
In case of (de)compressed size mismatch, the stored size is now also
shown in hexadecimal to ease visual comparison.
The dictionary size is now shown at verbosity level 4 (-vvvv) when
decompressing or testing.
The new chapter "Meaning of lzip's output" has been added to the manual.
The option '-l, --list' has been ported from lziprecover.
It is now an error to specify two or more different operations in the
command line (--decompress, --list or --test).
Compression time of option '-0' has been slightly reduced.
Decompression time has been reduced by 2%.
In test mode, lzip now continues checking the rest of the files if any
input file is a terminal.
Trailing data are now shown both in hexadecimal and as a string of
printable ASCII characters.

distfiles/szip-2.1nb3/szip-2.1.tar.gz
distfiles/xmill-0.9.1.tar.gz

the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.

Compression ratio of option -9 has been slightly increased.
Compression time has been reduced by 4%.
"lzip -0" is now comparable in compression speed and ratio to "gzip -6".
Copying of file dates, permissions, and ownership now behaves like "cp -p".
(If the user ID or the group ID can't be duplicated, the file permission
bits S_ISUID and S_ISGID are cleared).
Some minor improvements have been made.
"lzip.texinfo" has been renamed to "lzip.texi".
The license has been changed to GPL version 2 or later.
Changes in version 1.15:

* Decompression time has been reduced by 12%.
Lziprecover has been moved to its own package.
Inability to change output file attributes has been downgraded from
error to warning.
Compression time of option "-0" has been reduced by 2%.
A reorganization of the compression code has been made.
A small change has been made in the "--help" output and man page.
Quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU Coding
Standards.
Configure option "--datadir" has been renamed to "--datarootdir" to
follow GNU Standards.
* lzdiff and lzgrep are now separate package, zutils (not packaged yet).
Changelog:
2011-04-30 Antonio Diaz Diaz <ant_diaz@teleline.es>
* Version 1.12 released.
* main.cc: Added new option `-F, --recompress'.
* encoder.h (update_prices): Update high length symbol prices
independently of the value of `pos_state'. This gives better
compression for large values of `--match-length' without being
slower.
* encoder.h encoder.cc: Optimize pair price calculations. This
reduces compression time for large values of `--match-length'
by up to 6%.
* Compression time of option `-0' has been reduced by 2%.
* main.cc (decompress): Print only one status line for each
multimember file when only one `-v' is specified.
* main.cc (decompress): Print up to 6 bytes of trailing garbage
when `-vvvv' is specified.
* main.cc (open_instream): Do not show the message
" and `--stdout' was not specified" for directories, etc.
* lziprecover.cc: If `-v' is not specified show errors only.
* testsuite/unzcrash.cc: Use Arg_parser.
* testsuite/unzcrash.cc: Added new options `-b', `-p' and `-s'.
2010-09-16 Antonio Diaz Diaz <ant_diaz@teleline.es>
* Version 1.11 released.
* Added new option `-0' which produces a compression speed and
ratio comparable to those of `gzip -9'.
* fast_encoder.h fast_encoder.cc: New files.
* main.cc: Match length limit set by options -1 to -8 has been
reduced to extend range of use towards gzip. Lower numbers now
compress less but faster. (-1 now takes 43% less time for only
20% larger compressed size).
* encoder.cc: Compression of option -9 has been slightly increased.
* lziprecover.cc: Added new option `--merge' which tries to
produce a correct file merging the good parts of two or more
damaged copies.
* lziprecover.cc: Added new option `--repair' for repairing a
1-byte error in single-member files.
* decoder.cc (decode_member): Detect file errors earlier to
improve efficiency of lziprecover's new repair capability.
This change also prevents (harmless) access to uninitialized
memory when decompressing a corrupt file.
* lziprecover.cc: Added new option `--force'.
* lziprecover.cc: Added new option `--output'.
* lziprecover.cc: Added new option `--split' to select the until
now only operation of splitting multimember files.
* lziprecover.cc: If no operation is specified, warn the user
and do nothing.
* main.cc: Fixed warning about fchown's return value being ignored.
* decoder.cc: `-tvvvv' now also shows compression ratio.
* main.cc: Set stdin/stdout in binary mode on MSVC and OS2.
* New examples have been added to the manual.
* testsuite: `test1' renamed to `test.txt'. Added new tests.
* Matchfinder types HC4 (4 bytes hash-chain) and HT4 (4 bytes
hash-table) have been tested and found no better than the
current BT4.
2010-04-05 Antonio Diaz Diaz <ant_diaz@teleline.es>
* Version 1.10 released.
* decoder.h: Input_buffer integrated in Range_decoder.
* main.cc: File specified with option `-o' is now created with
mode 0666 if umask allows it, deleted if interrupted by user.
* main.cc: New constant `o_binary'.
* main.cc: Dictionary size for options -2, -3, -4 and -8 has
been changed to improve linearity of compressed sizes.
* lzip.h: Fixed warnings produced by over-optimization (-O3).
* Makefile.in: Added quotes to directory names.
2010-01-17 Antonio Diaz Diaz <ant_diaz@teleline.es>
* Version 1.9 released.
* main.cc (main): Return at least 1 if closing stdout fails.
* Makefile.in: Added `--name' option to help2man invocation.
* testsuite/check.sh: Use `test1' instead of `COPYING' for testing.
2009-09-02 Antonio Diaz Diaz <ant_diaz@teleline.es>
* Version 1.8 released.
* Compression time has been reduced by 4%.
* Lzdiff and lzgrep have been moved to the new package zutils.
* Fixed warnings on sistems where uint32_t != unsigned int.
Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with
very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of
gzip or bzip2. Lzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip and compresses
better than bzip2, which makes it well suited for software distribution
and data archiving.
