Subject: ANNOUNCE: update of DJGPP port of bzip2 1.0.4 uploaded.
Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2007 01:30:45 +0200
X-Y-GMX-Trusted: 0

This is an update of the port of bzip2 1.0.4 to MSDOS/DJGPP.


  DJGPP specific changes.
  =======================

  - There are some DJGPP specific bug fixes so that an update of the library
    and the program is recommended.  This only concerns people using the
    program on plain DOS but anyway.  So if you decide to download this new
    port, please pay attention to the timestamp: 2007-04-21 23:37 .  This
    timestamp is for ftp.delorie.com and may be different on other mirrors.
    This update is marked as release 3 in the bz2-104[abds].dsm files.
    It is important that it is release 3 and not any previous.

  - The binary zip archive has been split in one containing only the programs
    and shell scripts and also the man pages but without the header and the
    library.  The second zip archive contains header and library for those
    users that need them to link it to their application.




  For futher information about bzip2 please read the man pages.  The man pages
  are the only ones that contain DJGPP specific information because they are
  the only one that can be remade with existing DJGPP tools.  The author no
  longer uses the texinfo format; he has switched to xml and it is not
  possible to recreate pdf, ps and html formated documentation from the
  distributed xml file.  Neitherless the original pdf, ps and html formated
  documentattion is supplied in the bz2-104d.zip archive.


  The port consists of the four packages that have been compiled using
  stock djdev203 and that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and
  mirrors as (timestamp 2007-04-21):

    Bzip2 1.0.4 header and library:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2apps/bz2-104a.zip

    Bzip2 1.0.4 binary and man formated documentation:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2apps/bz2-104b.zip

    Bzip2 1.0.4 html, ps and pdf formated documentation:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2apps/bz2-104d.zip

    Bzip2 1.0.4 source:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2apps/bz2-104s.zip


  For the convenience of the WinXP users the binaries and library have been
  produced a second time using the djdev204 beta library. These packages are
  available at ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (timestamp 2007-04-21):

    Bzip2 1.0.4 header and library:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2apps/bz2-104a.zip

    Bzip2 1.0.4 binary and man formated documentation:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2apps/bz2-104b.zip


  Send bzip2 specific bug reports to <jseward AT bzip DOT org>.
  Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port to
  comp.os.msdos.djgpp or <djgpp AT delorie DOT com>.


Enjoy.
