I am pleased to announce the release of lzip 1.10.
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.
The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html.
The sources can be downloaded from
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/lzip/.
The md5sums are:
84879f20450a69a94e125a67f4724d12 lzip-1.10.tar.gz
0833df039953a723e88dff2ad06e3895 lzip-1.10.tar.lz
This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by
appending ".sig" to the URL.
Changes in version 1.10:
* File specified with option "-o" is now created with write
permission for all if umask allows it, and deleted if lzip is
interrupted by the user.
* Regular files are now open in binary mode in non-POSIX platforms
defining the O_BINARY macro.
* Dictionary size for options -2, -3, -4 and -8 has been changed to
improve linearity of compressed sizes.
* Compiler warnings produced by over-optimization (-O3) have been fixed.
Please send bug reports and suggestions to [email protected]
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, lzip author and maintainer.
