XZ Utils Release Notes
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
5.2.13 (2024-05-29)
|
||||
|
||||
* liblzma:
|
||||
|
||||
- lzma_index_append(): Fix an assertion failure that could be
|
||||
triggered by a large unpadded_size argument. It was verified
|
||||
that there was no other bug than the assertion failure.
|
||||
|
||||
- lzma_index_decoder() and lzma_index_buffer_decode(): Fix
|
||||
a missing output pointer initialization (*i = NULL) if the
|
||||
functions are called with invalid arguments. The API docs
|
||||
say that such an initialization is always done. In practice
|
||||
this matters very little because the problem can only occur
|
||||
if the calling application has a bug and these functions
|
||||
return LZMA_PROG_ERROR.
|
||||
|
||||
- Fix C standard conformance with function pointer types.
|
||||
This newly showed up with Clang 17 with -fsanitize=undefined.
|
||||
There are no bug reports about this.
|
||||
|
||||
- Fix building with NVIDIA HPC SDK.
|
||||
|
||||
- Fix building with Windows Vista threads and --enable-small.
|
||||
(CMake build doesn't support ENABLE_SMALL in XZ Utils 5.2.x.)
|
||||
|
||||
* xz:
|
||||
|
||||
- Fix a C standard conformance issue in --block-list parsing
|
||||
(arithmetic on a null pointer).
|
||||
|
||||
- Fix a warning from GNU groff when processing the man page:
|
||||
"warning: cannot select font 'CW'"
|
||||
|
||||
- Windows: Handle special files such as "con" or "nul". Earlier
|
||||
the following wrote "foo" to the console and deleted the input
|
||||
file "con_xz":
|
||||
|
||||
echo foo | xz > con_xz
|
||||
xz --suffix=_xz --decompress con_xz
|
||||
|
||||
- Windows: Fix an issue that prevented reading from or writing
|
||||
to non-terminal character devices like NUL.
|
||||
|
||||
* xzless:
|
||||
|
||||
- With "less" version 451 and later, use "||-" instead of "|-"
|
||||
in the environment variable LESSOPEN. This way compressed
|
||||
files that contain no uncompressed data are shown correctly
|
||||
as empty.
|
||||
|
||||
- With "less" version 632 and later, use --show-preproc-errors
|
||||
to make "less" show a warning on decompression errors.
|
||||
|
||||
* Build systems:
|
||||
|
||||
- Add a new line to liblzma.pc for MSYS2 (Windows):
|
||||
|
||||
Cflags.private: -DLZMA_API_STATIC
|
||||
|
||||
When compiling code that will link against static liblzma,
|
||||
the LZMA_API_STATIC macro needs to be defined on Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
- Autotools (configure):
|
||||
|
||||
* Symbol versioning variant can now be overridden with
|
||||
--enable-symbol-versions. Documentation in INSTALL was
|
||||
updated to match.
|
||||
|
||||
- CMake:
|
||||
|
||||
* Fix a bug that prevented other projects from including
|
||||
liblzma multiple times using find_package().
|
||||
|
||||
* Fix a bug where configuring CMake multiple times resulted
|
||||
in HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME and HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC not being
|
||||
defined.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fix the build with MinGW-w64-based Clang/LLVM 17.
|
||||
llvm-windres now has more accurate GNU windres emulation
|
||||
so the GNU windres workaround from 5.4.1 is needed with
|
||||
llvm-windres version 17 too.
|
||||
|
||||
* The import library on Windows is now properly named
|
||||
"liblzma.dll.a" instead of "libliblzma.dll.a"
|
||||
|
||||
* Add large file support by default for platforms that
|
||||
need it to handle files larger than 2 GiB. This includes
|
||||
MinGW-w64, even 64-bit builds.
|
||||
|
||||
* Linux on MicroBlaze is handled specially now. This
|
||||
matches the changes made to the Autotools-based build
|
||||
in XZ Utils 5.4.2 and 5.2.11.
|
||||
|
||||
* Disable symbol versioning on non-glibc Linux to match
|
||||
what the Autotools build does. For example, symbol
|
||||
versioning isn't enabled with musl.
|
||||
|
||||
* Symbol versioning variant can now be overridden by
|
||||
setting SYMBOL_VERSIONING to "OFF", "generic", or
|
||||
"linux".
|
||||
|
||||
* Documentation:
|
||||
|
||||
- Clarify the description of --disable-assembler in INSTALL.
|
||||
The option only affects 32-bit x86 assembly usage.
|
||||
|
||||
- Don't install the TODO file as part of the documentation.
|
||||
The file is out of date.
|
||||
|
||||
- Update home page URLs back to their old locations on
|
||||
tukaani.org.
|
||||
|
||||
- Update maintainer info.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5.2.12 (2023-05-04)
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed a build system bug that prevented building liblzma as a
