Superseded in raring-release on 2013-01-03

Deleted in raring-proposed on 2013-01-05 (Reason: moved to release)

xz-utils (5.1.1alpha+20120614-2) unstable; urgency=low


  * Apply fixes from 5.1.2alpha.  Closes: #685220.
    - liblzma: report a LZMA_DATA_ERROR when range encoded data starts
      with a nonzero byte.  This is a sanity check to catch malformed
      files that no known encoders produce.
    - xz -v -v --list: Support for decompressing blocks with
      zero-length uncompressed data was added in xz 5.0.2, not 5.0.3.
    - xz.1: "xz --robot -v -v --list" gained a "minimum xz version to
      decompress" field.
  * xz-utils/README.Debian: Document differences from upstream.
    Closes: #685217.

5.1.1alpha+20120614-1

Superseded in raring-release on 2012-11-19

Obsolete in quantal-release on 2015-04-24

xz-utils (5.1.1alpha+20120614-1) unstable; urgency=low


  * New snapshot, taken from upstream commit f1675f76.
    - liblzma: BCJ filters would return a spurious LZMA_BUF_ERROR
      result in certain circumstances.  As a result, the xz tool
      could produce inappropriate "Compressed data is corrupt" or
      "Unexpected end of input" failures (reported in XZ Embedded as
      Fedora bug 735408).
    - "xz -v -v --list" prints the minimal XZ Utils version needed
      to decompress a stream.
    - "xz --robot -v --list" formats filenames more plainly.
    - xzgrep does not fail unconditionally when the decompressor
      dies with SIGPIPE due to unconsumed output any more.  This
      makes the exit status from commands such as "xzgrep -q" and
      "xzgrep -l" more predictable and convenient for scripts.
    - examples/xz_pipe_decomp.c did not check correctly for
      truncated input.
    - There is a new set of sample programs.  The old ones have
      been renamed to examples_old but are still maintained.
  * liblzma:
    - If dlopen() indicates that liblzma.so.2 is loaded, check fewer
      reserved fields in the stream argument to the lzma_code()
      function.  This prevents out-of-bounds reads when liblzma5
      functions are called by code built against liblzma2 (see
      <http://sourceware.org/PR12977>).
    - Remove the lzma_code@Base compatibility symbol.
      Closes: #649522.  Thanks to Eduard Bloch.
    - Install run-time library to /lib so it can be used before /usr
      is mounted.  Closes: #672120.
    - Configure with --disable-threads for now to avoid needlessly
      linking to libpthread and librt.
  * liblzma-dev:
    - Install an appropriate library for static linking instead of
      the decompression-only version used to build xzdec.
      Closes: #673001.  Thanks to Anton Tolchanov.
    - Use the liblzma2-compatible version of lzma_code() in the
      static library.
    - Multi-Arch: same.  Thanks to Riku Voipio.
    - Install new examples and revised old examples to
      /usr/share/doc/liblzma-dev.
  * xz-utils:
    - Use update-alternatives to provide lzma, unlzma, lzcat, and
      the rest of the lz* scripts without conflicting with the lzma
      package.
    - Conflicts: lzma versions before before 9.22-1, when it started
      providing lzma, unlzma, and lzcat through the alternatives
      system.
    - Conflicts: and Replaces: xz-lzma.
    - README.Debian: Update instructions on configuring the package
      to provide lzma compatibility commands.
  * Remove xz-lzma package.
  * Use dpkg-buildflags to retrieve compiler flags, including
    hardening options.  Build-Depends: dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1).
    Closes: #653739.
  * debian/rules:
    - build-arch: Simplify by using a double-colon rule instead of a
      dependency on a dummy noop target.
    - build-indep: Assume doxygen is available, instead of trying to
      get by by assuming the caller meant to invoke build-arch when
      it is missing.  Build-Depends: dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.2).
    - Rearrange for clarity.
  * debian/symbols: Bump the minimal version for lzma_code(),
    lzma_raw_buffer_decode(), and lzma_raw_buffer_encode().
  * Use machine-readable copyright-format 1.0.
  * Update copyright file.
  * Standards-Version: 3.9.3 (checked).
  * debian/changelog.upstream.sh: Use ‘git rev-list | git diff-tree’
    instead of ‘git log’ to avoid depending on the build system’s
    configuration.

xz-utils (5.1.1alpha+20110809-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * liblzma: Match upstream ABI.
    - Remove the lzma_chunk_size() function.
    - A few ABI tweaks to reserved space in structures.
    - Enable ELF symbol versioning.
    - Bump soname to 5.
    - Continue to leave out threading support, since the relevant
      interfaces in liblzma are not yet stable.
  * xz-utils/README.Debian: Remove note on ABI differences.
  * Remove liblzma/README.Debian.
  * liblzma: Introduce a lzma_code@Base compatibility symbol to ensure
    programs linked against unversioned symbols from liblzma2 can
    share a process image with liblzma5 without breaking.
  * debian/symbols: XZ_5.0 symbols come from liblzma5.  Build-Depends:
    dpkg-dev (>= 1.15.6); thanks to Jakub Wilk for a reminder.
  * debian/symbols: The lzma_code@Base symbol is not guaranteed to
    continue to exist in the future, so tell dpkg-shlibdeps to produce
    an error if some package manages to use it.

xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20100810-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit d5653ba8a.
    - xz: The memory usage limiter is now disabled by default.
    - xz: Support for an XZ_DEFAULTS environment variable was added.
      It contains user-specific default settings, such as memory usage
      limits, and can be overridden by the command line and XZ_OPT.
    - xz: The new --memlimit-compress and --memlimit-decompress
      options allow the memory usage limit to be set separately for
      compression and decompression.  A new --memlimit alias has been
      added for the existing --memory option.
    - xz: The --info-memory option (with or without --robot) now prints
      how much RAM is installed in addition to the compression and
      decompression memory limits.
  * liblzma-doc: Simplify package description.
  * debian/control: Build-Depends: autopoint | gettext (<< 0.18-1),
    autopoint | cvs instead of autopoint, to help with backporting.
    Thanks to Thorsten Glaser for a report.

  * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit f4b2b526.
    - liblzma: The lzma_stream_init() function was not correctly
      initializing the internal allow_buffer_error flag.  As a result,
      ever since 4.999.9beta-1 in rare circumstances when decompressing
      LZMA files, the xz tool would produce spurious "Unexpected end
      of input" failures (Gentoo bug 305591).
    - The default memory usage limit on low-memory systems has been
      increased.
  * debian/copyright: Clarify.

  * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit d315ca4.
     + liblzma: add some new functions:
        - lzma_filters_copy() to copy a filter chain;
        - lzma_filters_update() to change compression options mid-stream;
        - lzma_physmem() to retrieve the total quantity of installed RAM.
     + Fix a design error in liblzma API.
        - Stop requiring caller to maintain filter chain during
          compression.  The library used to read it for new compression
          options.  Callers that need to change options mid-stream should
          use lzma_filters_update() instead.
        - Remove 'persistent' member from struct lzma_options_lzma.
     + xz: add --robot --info-memory options, for front-ends to use to
       read the memory usage limit.
  * liblzma: bump soname; add README.Debian explaining why soname
    differs from upstream.
  * Use source format 3.0 (quilt).
  * Update and clarify copyright file.
