Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2007 01:30:45 +0200 Content-Disposition: inline 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.
