• Bug#1004588: libzip: New upstream release (1.8.0, 2021 Jun 18)

    From Florian Ernst@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jul 27 12:40:01 2024
    Control: retitle -1 libzip: New upstream release (1.10.1, 2023 Aug 23)

    Dear maintainer,

    by now there are several new upstream releases available, cf. <https://github.com/nih-at/libzip/releases>.

    The additional changes contain

    | libzip 1.10.1 Latest
    | Aug 23, 2023
    | Add ZIP_LENGTH_TO_END and ZIP_LENGTH_UNCHECKED. Unless
    | ZIP_LENGTH_UNCHECKED is used as length, it is an error for a file to
    | shrink between the time when the source is created and when its data is
    | read.
    | Fix test on Windows.
    |
    | libzip 1.10.0
    | Jun 23, 2023
    | Make support for layered sources public.
    | Add zip_source_zip_file and zip_source_zip_file_create, deprecate
    | zip_source_zip and zip_source_zip_create.
    | Allow reading changed file data.
    | Fix handling of files of size 4294967295.
    | zipmerge: copy extra fields.
    | zipmerge: add option to keep files uncompressed.
    | Switch test framework to use nihtest instead of Perl.
    | Fix reading/writing compressed data with buffers > 4GiB.
    | Restore support for torrentzip.
    | Add warnings when using deprecated functions.
    | Allow keeping files for empty archives.
    | Support mbedTLS>=3.3.0.
    | Support OpenSSL 3.
    | Use ISO C secure library functions, if available.

    Considering that my previous message went without any feedback (visible
    to me, that is, of course) and that upstream now starts to wonder as
    well, cf. #1067451, I can't help but think this package might be in need
    of support.

    I could assist by starting to check packaging the newest release like I
    did in <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1004588#10>,
    if that'd interest you.

    Please let me know what your plans are.

    Cheers,
    Flo
