UnZip is an open-source, command-line alternative to other zip-format archives such as WinZip, etc. unzip-5.50 is the latest release from Info-Zip, http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/UnZip.html. CHANGES from 5.50-1 o Add fix for an obscure directory traversal bug (thanks to David F.) o See other NOTES below. --Chuck Wilson INSTALLATION: To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and update the unzip package. Note that we have recently stopped downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com . I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message. Send email to the address specified there. It will be in the format: cygwin-announce-unsubscribe-you=yourdomain DOT com AT cygwin DOT com NOTES: o This package WAS built with decryption support -- although the corresponding zip package does NOT include ENcryption support. The unzip-5.50 code base contains decryption support by default, without using the zcrypt29.zip package at http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/. Blame US cryptography export law; at present, the export of decryption binaries and source code is allowed, while exporting encryption source code still requires explicit notification of the US govt. Further, exporting compiled binaries of open-source code requires a formal technical review from the US Bureau of Export Administration. See: http://www.cdt.org/crypto/admin/ http://www.cdt.org/crypto/admin/000114qanda.shtml http://www.columbia.edu/~ariel/jlewis-answers.html o this build is -mno-win32 clean; that is, it builds from source identically, regardless of whether gcc sets the _WIN32 or WINNT defines.
