Fedora Project

  • Rebuilt perl-Compress-Raw-Lzma (2.069) for xz 5.2.2 in Rawhide

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Compress-Raw-Lzma (Rawhide only) as per the Fedora version

  • Updated xz to 5.2.2 (Rawhide only):

    • Fixed bugs in QNX-specific code
    • Omitted the use of pipe2() even if it is available to avoid portability issues with some old Linux and glibc combinations

    • Updated German translation
    • Added project files to build static and shared liblzma (not the whole XZ Utils) with Visual Studio 2013 update 2 or later

    • Documented that threaded decompression hasn't been implemented yet; a 5.2.0 NEWS entry describing multi-threading support had incorrectly said "decompression" when it should have said "compression"
