| Summary: Parallel LZMA Data Compressor | |
Plzip is a parallel version of the lzip data compressor. The files produced by plzip are fully compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer. Plzip is intended for faster compression/decompression of big files on multiprocessor machines. 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.
GPL-2.0-or-later
* Thu Feb 08 2024 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
- Update to release 1.11
* The option -o/--output now preserves dates, permissions, and
ownership of the file when (de)compressing exactly one file.
* The option -o/--output now creates missing intermediate
directories when writing to a file.
* Sun Feb 13 2022 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
- Update to release 1.10
* In case of error in a numerical argument to a command line
option, plzip now shows the name of the option and the range
of valid values.
* Fri Mar 12 2021 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- update to 1.9:
* main.cc (main): Report an error if a file name is empty.
Make '-o' behave like '-c', but writing to file instead of stdout.
Make '-c' and '-o' check whether the output is a terminal only once.
Do not open output if input is a terminal.
* main.cc: New option '--check-lib'.
* Replace 'decompressed', 'compressed' with 'out', 'in' in output.
* decompress.cc, dec_stream.cc, dec_stdout.cc:
Continue testing if any input file fails the test.
Show the largest dictionary size in a multimember file.
* main.cc: Show final diagnostic when testing multiple files.
* decompress.cc, dec_stream.cc [LZ_API_VERSION >= 1012]: Avoid
copying decompressed data when testing with lzlib 1.12 or newer.
* compress.cc, dec_stream.cc: Start only the worker threads required.
* dec_stream.cc: Splitter stops reading when trailing data is found.
Don't include trailing data in the compressed size shown.
Use plain comparison instead of Boyer-Moore to search for headers.
* lzip_index.cc: Improve messages for corruption in last header.
* decompress.cc: Shorten messages 'Data error' and 'Unexpected EOF'.
* main.cc: Set a valid invocation_name even if argc == 0.
* Document extraction from tar.lz in manual, '--help', and man page.
* plzip.texi (Introduction): Mention tarlz as an alternative.
* plzip.texi: Several fixes and improvements.
* testsuite: Add 8 new test files.
* Mon Jan 07 2019 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
- Update to new upstream release 1.8
* No functional changes; just a version bump.
* Fri Dec 14 2018 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
- Update to new upstream release 1.8~rc1
* The new options '--in-slots' and '--out-slots', setting the
number of input and output packets buffered during streamed
decompression, have been added. Increasing the number of
packets may increase decompression speed, but requires more
memory.
* The default number of input packets buffered per worker
thread when decompressing from non-seekable input has been
increased from 2 to 4.
* The default number of output packets buffered per worker
thread when decompressing to non-seekable output has been
increased from 32 to 64.
* Detection of forbidden combinations of characters in trailing
data has been improved.
* Mon Mar 05 2018 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.7
* The option "--loose-trailing" has been added.
* The test used by clzip to discriminate trailing data from a
corrupt header in multimember or concatenated files has been
improved to a Hamming distance of 3.
* Thu May 11 2017 mpluskal@suse.com
- Update to version 1.6:
* The option '-l, --list' has been ported from lziprecover.
* It is now an error to specify two or more different operations
in the command line (--decompress, --list or --test).
* In test mode, plzip now continues checking the rest of the
files if any input file is a terminal.
- Update dependecies and sections for info file handling
* Sat Aug 20 2016 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.5
* The option "-a, --trailing-error", which makes plzip exit with
error status 2 if any remaining input is detected after
decompressing the last member, has been added.
* When decompressing, the file specified with the "--output" option
is now deleted if the input is a terminal.
* Thu Aug 06 2015 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.4
* The option "-0" has been modified to use the new fast encoder of
lzlib 1.7, which achieves a compression speed and ratio
comparable to those of pigz's default compression level.
* Sun Feb 08 2015 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.3
* Testing of a non-seekable file or of standard input now uses up
to 30 MiB less memory per thread.
* "-dvvv" and "-tvvv" now show the dictionary size of the first
member, producing the same output as lzip for single-member
files.
* Wed Oct 01 2014 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.2
* Copying of file dates, permissions, and ownership now behaves
like `cp -p`. (If the user ID or the group ID cannot be
duplicated, the file permission bits S_ISUID and S_ISGID are
cleared).
* Individual limits have been set on the number of packets produced
by each decompresor worker thread to limit the amount of memory
used in all cases.
* The license has been changed to GPL version 2 or later.
* Tue Sep 23 2014 jengelh@inai.de
- Drop gpg-offline build-time requirement; this is now handled by
the local source validator
* Sun Sep 29 2013 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.1
* Plzip now shows the progress of compression at verbosity
level 2 (-vv).
* Wed Jun 05 2013 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 1.0
* Scalability of compression (max number of useful worker threads)
has been increased. Scalability when decompressing from/to
regular files has been increased.
* The number of worker threads is now limited to the number of
members in the input file when decompressing from a regular file.
- Do signature verification
- Wrap description at 70 cols
- Remove redundant %clean section
* Thu Apr 19 2012 pascal.bleser@opensuse.org
- update to 0.9: minor fixes and cleanup
* Sun Feb 26 2012 pascal.bleser@opensuse.org
- update to 0.8:
* the option "-F, --recompress", which forces recompression of files whose
name already has the ".lz" or ".tlz" suffix, has been added
* the options "-d, --decompress" and "-t, --test" now also show compression
ratio
* inability to change output file attributes has been downgraded from error
to warning
* quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU Coding
Standards
