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.

Changes in this version:

  * The option '--empty-error', which forces exit status 2 if any empty 
member is found, has been added.

  * The option '--marking-error', which forces exit status 2 if the first 
LZMA byte is non-zero in any member, has been added.

  * File diagnostics have been reformatted as 'PROGRAM: FILE: MESSAGE'.

  * Diagnostics caused by invalid arguments to command-line options now 
show the argument and the name of the option.

  * The option '-o, --output' now creates missing intermediate directories 
when writing to a file.

  * The variable MAKEINFO has been added to configure and Makefile.in.

  * It has been documented in INSTALL that when choosing a C standard, the 
POSIX features need to be enabled explicitly:
  ./configure CFLAGS+='--std=c99 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500'
