I am pleased to announce the release of lunzip 1.11.

Lunzip is a decompressor for lzip files. It is written in C and its small size makes it well suited for embedded devices or software installers that need to decompress files but do not 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:
dc1b0ee2f8112ee96d4ac27990bfc696918f35d69d6c2de9ea3d67e2ed484a56 lunzip-1.11.tar.lz 21ad5f051cc516c5fc05cb6dfc9bb66737d9810cfa9349709e42c545eb1bf8a7 lunzip-1.11.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 1.11:

* Detection of forbidden combinations of characters in trailing data has been improved.

  * Errors are now also checked when closing the input file.

  * Lunzip now compiles on DOS with DJGPP. (Patch from Robert Riebisch).

* The configure script now accepts appending options to CFLAGS using the syntax 'CFLAGS+=OPTIONS'.

  * It has been documented in INSTALL the use of
    CFLAGS+='-D __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO' when compiling on MinGW.


Please send bug reports and suggestions to address@hidden

Antonio Diaz, lunzip author and maintainer.
