Here comes a new minor update to the zlib package.
Package changes: * PKGBUILD cleanup * use asm code for i686 and amd64 (might be insane ;-)) * patched Makfile to install soname links and set correct permissions of libz.a
Note: As the zlib.net homepage seems stalled for some years now, I grab the zlib-*.orig.tar.gz from Debain and upload it to our FTP.
Upstream changelog: - Use old school .SUFFIXES in Makefile.in for FreeBSD compatibility - Update comments in configure and Makefile.in for default --shared - Fix test -z's in configure [Marquess] - Build examplesh and minigzipsh when not testing - Change NULL's to Z_NULL's in deflate.c and in comments in zlib.h - Import LDFLAGS from the environment in configure - Fix configure to populate SFLAGS with discovered CFLAGS options - Adapt make_vms.com to the new Makefile.in [Zinser] - Add zlib2ansi script for C++ compilation [Marquess] - Add _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 test to make test (when applicable) - Add AMD64 assembler code for longest match to contrib [Teterin] - Include options from $SFLAGS when doing $LDSHARED - Simplify 64-bit file support by introducing z_off64_t type - Make shared object files in objs directory to work around old Sun cc - Use only three-part version number for Darwin shared compiles - Add rc option to ar in Makefile.in for when ./configure not run - Add -WI,-rpath,. to LDFLAGS for OSF 1 V4* - Set LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH for SGI IRIX shared compile - Protect against _FILE_OFFSET_BITS being defined when compiling zlib - Rename Makefile.in targets allstatic to static and allshared to shared - Fix static and shared Makefile.in targets to be independent - Correct error return bug in gz_open() by setting state [Brown] - Put spaces before ;;'s in configure for better sh compatibility - Added pigz.c (parallel implementation of gzip) to examples/ - Correct constant in crc32.c to UL [Leventhal] - Reject negative lengths in crc32_combine() - Add inflateReset2() function to work like inflateEnd()/inflateInit2() - Include sys/types.h for _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE [Brown] - Correct typo in doc/algorithm.txt [Janik] - Fix bug in adler32_combine() [Zhu] - Catch missing-end-of-block-code error in all inflates and in puff Assures that random input to inflate eventually results in an error - Added enough.c (calculation of ENOUGH for inftrees.h) to examples/ - Update ENOUGH and its usage to reflect discovered bounds - Fix gzerror() error report on empty input file [Brown] - Add ush casts in trees.c to avoid pedantic runtime errors - Fix typo in zlib.h uncompress() description [Reiss] - Correct inflate() comments with regard to automatic header detection - Remove deprecation comment on Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH (it stays) - Put new version of gzlog (2.0) in examples with interruption recovery - Add puff compile option to permit invalid distance-too-far streams - Add puff TEST command options, ability to read piped input - Prototype the *64 functions in zlib.h when _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64, but _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE not defined - Fix Z_FULL_FLUSH to truly erase the past by resetting s->strstart - Fix deflateSetDictionary() to use all 32K for output consistency - Remove extraneous #define MIN_LOOKAHEAD in deflate.c (in deflate.h) - Clear bytes after deflate lookahead to avoid use of uninitialized data - Change a limit in inftrees.c to be more transparent to Coverity Prevent - Update win32/zlib.def with exported symbols from zlib.h - Correct spelling error in zlib.h [Willem] - Allow Z_BLOCK for deflate() to force a new block - Allow negative bits in inflatePrime() to delete existing bit buffer - Add Z_TREES flush option to inflate() to return at end of trees - Add inflateMark() to return current state information for random access - Added Makefile for NintendoDS to contrib [Costa] - Add -w in configure compile tests to avoid spurious warnings [Beucler] - Fix typos in zlib.h comments for deflateSetDictionary() - Fix EOF detection in transparent gzread() [Maier]
PS: Will I get a cookie when pkgrel has bumped to 5?
