xz-utils (5.0.0-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Upload to unstable.
* liblzma2, liblzma-dev, xz-lzma: Install release notes.
* debian/symbols: Bump the minimal versions for lzma_index_encoder,
lzma_index_decoder to the version in which they gained LZMA_FINISH
support.
* xz-utils/README.Debian: Document differences from upstream ABI.
* debian/changelog.upstream.sh: Avoid empty changelog entries when
multiple Debian revisions match an upstream tag.
xz-utils (5.0.0-1) experimental; urgency=low
* Upload to experimental.
* New stable upstream release. Closes: #592298.
- xz avoids SA_RESTART. This should not have a visible effect
because xz already blocked signals during operations that
would be difficult to resume after interruption.
- liblzma: The coders returned by lzma_index_encoder() and
lzma_index_decoder() support an LZMA_FINISH action, with
identical semantics to LZMA_RUN.
- The printable (PDF and PS) versions of the manual are easier
to read.
- Many documentation and build system cleanups.
* liblzma: Back out upstream ABI tweaks.
* liblzma/README.Debian: Document ABI differences from upstream.
* Copy sample code not included in the release tarball from
the development upstream repository to debian/examples.
* debian/rules clean: Remove some files not included in the
release tarball.
* copyright: List new INSTALL.generic license.
* debian/rules clean: Take new build-aux scripts into account.
* debian/rules: Adapt for upstream build system changes.
Closes: #540443.
* xz-utils, xzdec: Install release notes.
xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20100927-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New snapshot, taken from upstream commit cec0ddc.
- liblzma: The meaning of --extreme has been tweaked to address
cases in which it made the compression ratio worse. Some files
might benefit slightly less from --extreme.
- xz: Table columns are not misaligned any more in messages with
multi-byte characters (e.g., file sizes with LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8).
- xz: New German and Italian translations.
- Various documentation, message, and translation updates.
* Update copyright file.
* debian/rules get-orig-source: Update upstream Git URL.
* xz-utils/README.Debian: Advertise XZ_DEFAULTS.
xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20100903-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New snapshot, taken from upstream commit 373ee26.
- liblzma: The settings for compression levels 0 through 5
(used by xz -0/.../-5) have been tweaked. This affects the
speed, compression ratio, and memory usage at compression and
decompression time.
- Does not search so hard for a match when a low "nice match
length" setting is specified without a depth.
- xz: The -1/.../-9 preset options override any previously
specified filters, rather than vice versa. To mix presets
with filter options, use the --lzma2=preset=n option.
- xz: Warns about --memlimit-compress settings that result in
compression settings changing even if no explicit -1/.../-9,
--lzma1, or --lzma2 option was used.
- "xz -v -v --compress" now prints an estimate of the memory
required to decompress a file.
* debian/copyright: Update upstream Git URL.
* debian/changelog.upstream.sh: Permit terser changelog lines.
* Standards-Version: 3.9.1 (checked).

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.
xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20100713-1) unstable; urgency=low
[ Thorsten Glaser ]
* Explicitly depend on autoconf (>= 2.64~) due to AC_PREREQ,
discovered during backporting.
[ Jonathan Nieder ]
* Upload to unstable.
* New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit a540198f.
- xz: The new --no-adjust option can be used to error out if there
is insufficient memory for the chosen compression level.
* liblzma-dev: Install examples to /usr/share/doc/liblzma-dev.
* Update copyright file.
* Drop unpack-time conflicts in favor of configuration-time
conflicts (Replaces + Breaks):
- xz-utils: against old xz-lzma (for lzmainfo).
- xzdec: against old xz-lzma (for lzmadec).
- xz-lzma: against lzip 1.7 (for lzdiff and lzgrep).
* Standards-Version: 3.9.0.
* debian/autogen.sh: Don’t regenerate upstream changelog when it is
not out of date.
* debian/rules get-orig-source: Use gzip --no-name --rsyncable.
xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20100602-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit d8b41eed.
- The output from "xz -v --list" and "xz -v -v --list" has been
improved.
"xz -v -v --list" can be used to obtain an estimate for the memory
required to decompress a file.
- The xz manual page has some new material, including examples.
Closes: #578465.
- liblzma: The lzma_block_compressed_size() function no longer
returns LZMA_DATA_ERROR for valid Blocks.
* debian/symbols: Bump minimal version for lzma_block_compressed_size.
* Correct the 4.999.9beta+20100307-1 changelog entry to describe
which public functions were affected.
* Add new xz-lzma package to allow xz to provide lzma and related
commands. Conflicts: and Provides: lzma.
* xz-utils: Suggests: xz-lzma.
* xz-utils/README.Debian: Take xz-lzma into account.
