I am pleased to announce the release of lzlib 1.2.

Lzlib is a compression library providing in-memory LZMA compression and decompression functions, including integrity checking of the uncompressed data. The compressed data format used by lzlib is the lzip format.

The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzlib.html.

The sources can be downloaded from http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/lzip/.

The md5sums are:
7a77358000929bb0a31ad6b68a139b9d  lzlib-1.2.tar.gz
9aaa8d5bb8f06c4579f59b448def942b  lzlib-1.2.tar.lz

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by
appending ".sig" to the URL.

If you are packaging lzlib for a distribution, please, try to use the lzipped source tarball, as this can improve the support for the lzip format in packaging systems. Thanks.


Changes in version 1.2:

* For large values of "--match-length", compression ratio has been slightly increased and compression time has been reduced by up to 6%.

* The option "-F, --recompress", which forces recompression of files whose name already has the ".lz" or ".tlz" suffix, has been added to minilzip.

* "make install" no more tries to run "/sbin/ldconfig" on systems lacking it.

Regards,
Antonio Diaz, lzlib author and maintainer.
