The behavior of grep -ql varies:
- GNU grep behaves like grep -q.
- OpenBSD grep behaves like grep -l.
POSIX doesn't make it 100 % clear what behavior is expected.
Anyway, using both -q and -l at the same time makes no sense
so both options simply should never be used at the same time.
Thanks to Christian Weisgerber.
Clang and nowadays also GCC accept any -Wfoobar option
but then may give a warning that an unknown warning option
was specified. To avoid adding unsupported warning options,
the options are now tested with -Werror.
Thanks to Charles Diza.
Although the old address is still working, the new one should
be preferred. So this commit changes all three places in de.po
accordingly.

POSIX supports $< only in inference rules (suffix rules).
Using it elsewhere is a GNU make extension and doesn't
work e.g. with OpenBSD make.
Thanks to Christian Weisgerber for the patch.
Mimic the original grep behavior and return exit_success when
at least one xz compressed file matches given pattern.
Original bugreport:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1108085
Thanks to Pavel Raiskup for the patch.
In this case "make install" could fail if the man page directory
didn't already exist at the destination. If it did exist, a
dangling symlink was created there. Now the link is omitted
instead. This isn't the best fix but it's better than the old
behavior.
Add a note about failing "make check". The source of
the problem should be fixed in libtool (if it really is
a libtool bug and not mine) but I'm unable to spend time
on that for now. Thanks to Nelson H. F. Beebe for reporting
the issue.
Add a note about a possible need to run "ldconfig" after
"make install".
I don't know the details but I have an impression that there's
no problem in practice if using GCC since people have built xz
with GCC (without patching xz), but renaming the variable cannot
hurt either.
Thanks to Mark Ashley.
Previously it was done in configure, but doing that goes
against the Autoconf manual. Autoconf requires that it is
possible to override e.g. prefix after running configure
and that doesn't work correctly if liblzma.pc is created
by configure.
A potential downside of this change is that now e.g.
libdir in liblzma.pc is a standalone string instead of
being defined via ${prefix}, so if one overrides prefix
when running pkg-config the libdir won't get the new value.
I don't know if this matters in practice.
Thanks to Vincent Torri.
The man pages of lzmainfo, xzmore, and xzdec had similar
constructs as the man page of xz had before the commit
eb6ca9854b. Eric S. Raymond
didn't mention these man pages in his bug report, but
it's nice to be consistent.
POSIX says that fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, flags) returns -1 on
error and "other than -1" on success. This is how it is
documented e.g. on OpenBSD too. On Linux, success with
F_SETFL is always 0 (at least accorinding to fcntl(2)
from man-pages 3.51).
Due to a wrong variable name, when writing a sparse file
to standard output, *all* file status flags were cleared
(to the extent the operating system allowed it) instead of
only clearing the O_APPEND flag. In practice this worked
fine in the common situations on GNU/Linux, but I didn't
check how it behaved elsewhere.
The original flags were still restored correctly. I still
changed the code to use a separate boolean variable to
indicate when the flags should be restored instead of
relying on a special value in stdout_flags.
It is a no-op for now, but if an old xz version is used
together with a newer liblzma that supports something new,
then this check becomes important and will stop the old xz
from trying to parse files that it won't understand.
It should actually still work with Automake 1.10 if
the serial-tests option is removed. Automake 1.13 started
using parallel tests by default and the option to get
the old behavior isn't supported before 1.12.
At least for now, parallel tests don't improve anything
in XZ Utils but they hide the progress output from
test_compress.sh.
This affects only "xz -lvv". Normal decompression with xz
already detected if Block Header and Index had mismatched
Uncompressed Size fields. So this just makes "xz -lvv"
show such files as corrupt instead of showing the
Uncompressed Size from Index.
Now the interaction of presets and custom filter chains
is described correctly. Earlier it contradicted itself.
Thanks to DevHC who reported these issues on IRC to me
on 2012-12-14.
There was somewhat illogical behavior when --extreme was
specified and mixed with custom filter chains.
Before this commit, "xz -9 --lzma2 -e" was equivalent
to "xz --lzma2". After it is equivalent to "xz -6e"
(all earlier preset options get forgotten when a custom
filter chain is specified and the default preset is 6
to which -e is applied). I find this less illogical.
This also affects the meaning of "xz -9e --lzma2 -7".
Earlier it was equivalent to "xz -7e" (the -e specified
before a custom filter chain wasn't forgotten). Now it
is "xz -7". Note that "xz -7e" still is the same as "xz -e7".
Hopefully very few cared about this in the first place,
so pretty much no one should even notice this change.
Thanks to Conley Moorhous.
Variable-length arrays are mandatory in C99 but optional in C11.
The code doesn't currently use any VLAs and it shouldn't in the
future either to stay compatible with C11 without requiring any
optional C11 features.
