Change logs for xz-utils source package in Lucid

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

    xz-utils (4.999.8beta-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      [ Jonathan Nieder ]
      * Initial package for Debian. (Closes: #518803)
         + debian/rules:
            - add minimal rules file (using Debhelper 7), a control file
              describing the binary packages, and an appropriate compat file.
            - use configure --enable-dynamic; use up-to-date config.guess and
              config.sub files.
            - do not run automake and so on on autobuilders. Instead, we can
              run them ourselves when we build the source package.
         + debian/README.source:
            - add informations about the packaging GIT repository.
