[Lzip-bug] Lunzip 1.13 released

I am pleased to announce the release of lunzip 1.13.

Lunzip is a decompressor for the lzip format written in C. Its small size makes it well suited for embedded devices or software installers that need to decompress files but don't need compression capabilities. Lunzip is fully compatible with lzip 1.4 or newer and is able to decompress any lzip file using as little memory as 50 kB.

The lzip file format is designed for data sharing and long-term archiving, taking into account both data integrity and decoder availability.

The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lunzip.html

The sources can be downloaded from http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/lzip/lunzip/

The sha256sums are:
be12c349239b8c8a879c017ba6d28e23dd3f0287bf7cea1288b6e285a0e3ce4c lunzip-1.13.tar.lz 3c7d8320b947d2eb3c6081caf9b6c91b12debecb089ee544407cd14c8e517894 lunzip-1.13.tar.gz

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending '.sig' to the URL. If the 'gpg --verify' command fails because you don't have the required public key, then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 8FE99503132D7742

Key fingerprint = 1D41 C14B 272A 2219 A739  FA4F 8FE9 9503 132D 7742


Changes in version 1.13:

  * Decompression time has been reduced by 5-12% depending on the file.

* In case of error in a numerical argument to a command line option, lunzip now shows the name of the option and the range of valid values.


Please send bug reports and suggestions to lzip-bug@nongnu.org


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, lunzip author and maintainer.
