Sun Feb 13 22:32:35 UTC 2022 - Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
- Update to release 1.23
* Decompression time has been reduced by 5-12% depending on the
file.
* In case of error in a numerical argument to a command line
option, lzip now shows the name of the option and the range
of valid values.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan 19 21:49:43 UTC 2021 - Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- update to 1.22:
* Lzip now reports an error if a file name is empty (lzip -t "").
* Option '-o, --output' now behaves like '-c, --stdout', but
sending the output unconditionally to a file instead of to
standard output.
* Lzip now does not even open the output file if the input file
is a terminal.
* Lzip can now be built, tested, and installed on systems
lacking a 'make' program. (Feature suggested by Mohammad
Akhlaghi).
* The words 'decompressed' and 'compressed' have been replaced
with the shorter 'out' and 'in' in the verbose output when
decompressing or testing.
* Option '--list' now reports corruption or truncation of the
last header in a multimenber file specifically instead of
showing the generic message "Last member in input file is
truncated or corrupt."
* The commands needed to extract files from a tar.lz archive
have been documented in the manual, in the output of '--help',
and in the man page.
* Plzip and tarlz are mentioned in the manual as alternatives for
multiprocessors.
* Several fixes and improvements have been made to the manual.

Fri May 13 08:50:06 UTC 2011 - pascal.bleser@opensuse.org
- update to 1.12:
* the option "-F, --recompress", which forces recompression of files whose

slightly increased, and compression time has been reduced by up to 6%
* the compression time of the option "-0" has been reduced by 2%

when only one "-v" is specified

file approaches 100 percent

damaged lzip files
