Version: lbzip2-0.23
Focus: Minor feature enhancements
Date: 03-Mar-2010
Changes: In this release, if lbzip2 intends to exit with status 1 due to any
fatal error, but any SIGPIPE or SIGXFSZ with inherited SIG_DFL action
was generated for lbzip2 previously, then lbzip2 terminates by way of
one of said signals, after cleaning up any interrupted output file.
This should improve compatibility with GNU tar, when it spawns lbzip2
as a filter, and closes the pipe between them early, before it
receives an EOF from lbzip2.

Version: lbzip2-0.22
Focus: Minor bugfixes
Date: 18-Feb-2010
Changes: Building lbzip2 on Debian unstable discovered that the "lfs.sh" build
script, due to a typo, did not invoke the "getconf" utility in a
SUSv2-conformant way. This bug has been corrected.
Version: lbzip2-0.21
Focus: Minor bugfixes
Date: 17-Feb-2010
Changes: Code examination revealed that lbzip2-0.18 introduced a race between
the following two code paths: (1) the muxer thread displays an error
message when it encounters a write error, (2) the main thread, in
preparation to terminate the process, frees the output file name after
an INT or TERM signal is delivered to it. This bug had negligible
chance to occur, but it was fixed nonetheless.

- Allow installation on 64-bit systems even if 32-bit libraries are not
present (binary is statically linked) but we have kernel support for
32-bit compatibility

e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
Version: lbzip2-0.19
Focus: Minor bugfixes
Date: 01-Dec-2009
Changes: This release works around a GNU/kFreeBSD standards-compliance problem.
GNU/kFreeBSD does not define some STREAMS-related errno macros
mandated by SUSv2. Consequently, lbzip2-0.18 cannot be built on
GNU/kFreeBSD. This version checks if those (and some other) macros are
defined before relying them.
Version: lbzip2-0.18
Focus: Major feature enhancements
Date: 29-Nov-2009
Changes: After adding sanity checks to both decompressors, the following
features were implemented: removal of input FILE operands; options
--keep and --force; copying of owner, group, permission bits, access
time, modification time to regular output files. Logging was cleaned
up and internally categorized into INFO, WARNING and FATAL levels; a
separate exit status was introduced for the case when a warning
message was printed. The decompressor robustness tests were
re-executed. The author has finally replaced bzip2 with lbzip2 on his
system.
