[Lzip-bug] Lziprecover 1.15 released

[Antonio Diaz Diaz]

I am pleased to announce the release of lziprecover 1.15.

Lziprecover is a data recovery tool and decompressor for files in the 
lzip compressed data format (.lz) able to repair slightly damaged files, 
recover badly damaged files from two or more copies, extract data from 
damaged files, decompress files and test integrity of files.

Lziprecover is able to recover or decompress files produced by any of 
the compressors in the lzip family; lzip, plzip, minilzip/lzlib, clzip 
and pdlzip.

The lzip file format is designed for long-term data archiving. It is 
clean, provides very safe 4 factor integrity checking, and is backed by 
the recovery capabilities of lziprecover.

Changes in version 1.15:

error per member, without having to split them first.

  * Lziprecover can now merge multi-member files without having to 
split them first even if some copies have the header and the trailer 
damaged.

  * The chapters "Repairing files", "Merging files" and "Unzcrash" have 
been added to the manual.
