1 xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20091126-1) unstable; urgency=low
3 * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit f057a33.
4 - xz: try to write a sparse file if the decompressed stream
5 contains long runs of null bytes.
6 - xz: add --no-sparse option for disabling this behavior.
7 * debian/rules: Stop explicitly disabling assembler optimizations
8 on the Hurd. The configure script will check if a platform is
11 * debian/rules: Update clean target to handle comments and
12 wildcards in .gitignore.
13 * Build-Depends: perl.
15 * Remove debian/dirs lists.

19 xz-utils (4.999.9beta+20091116-1) unstable; urgency=low
21 * New upstream snapshot, taken from upstream commit d315ca4.
22 + liblzma: add some new functions:
23 - lzma_filters_copy() to copy a filter chain;
24 - lzma_filters_update() to change compression options mid-stream;
25 - lzma_physmem() to retrieve the total quantity of installed RAM.
26 + Fix a design error in liblzma API.
27 - Stop requiring caller to maintain filter chain during
28 compression. The library used to read it for new compression
29 options. Callers that need to change options mid-stream should
30 use lzma_filters_update() instead.
31 - Remove 'persistent' member from struct lzma_options_lzma.
32 + xz: add --robot --info-memory options, for front-ends to use to
33 read the memory usage limit.
34 * liblzma: bump soname; add README.Debian explaining why soname
35 differs from upstream.
36 * Use source format 3.0 (quilt).
37 * Update and clarify copyright file.

122 xz-utils (4.999.8beta-1) experimental; urgency=low
125 * Initial package for Debian. (Closes: #518803)
127 - add minimal rules file (using Debhelper 7), a control file
128 describing the binary packages, and an appropriate compat file.
129 - use configure --enable-dynamic; use up-to-date config.guess and
131 - do not run automake and so on on autobuilders. Instead, we can
132 run them ourselves when we build the source package.
133 + debian/README.source:
134 - add informations about the packaging GIT repository.
135 * Add liblzma-doc package with Doxygen-generated API docs.
