XZ Utils Release Notes
======================
5.4.1 (2023-01-11)
* liblzma:
- Fixed the return value of lzma_microlzma_encoder() if the
LZMA options lc/lp/pb are invalid. Invalid lc/lp/pb options
made the function return LZMA_STREAM_END without encoding
anything instead of returning LZMA_OPTIONS_ERROR.
- Windows / Visual Studio: Workaround a possible compiler bug
when targeting 32-bit x86 and compiling the CLMUL version of
the CRC64 code. The CLMUL code isn't enabled by the Windows
project files but it is in the CMake-based builds.
* Build systems:
- Windows-specific CMake changes:
* Don't try to enable CLMUL CRC64 code if _mm_set_epi64x()
isn't available. This fixes CMake-based build with Visual
Studio 2013.
* Created a workaround for a build failure with windres
from GNU binutils. It is used only when the C compiler
is GCC (not Clang). The workaround is incompatible
with llvm-windres, resulting in "XZx20Utils" instead
of "XZ Utils" in the resource file, but without the
workaround llvm-windres works correctly. See the
comment in CMakeLists.txt for details.
* Included the resource files in the xz and xzdec build
rules. Building the command line tools is still
experimental but possible with MinGW-w64.
- Visual Studio: Added stream_decoder_mt.c to the project
files. Now the threaded decompressor lzma_stream_decoder_mt()
gets built. CMake-based build wasn't affected.
- Updated windows/INSTALL-MSVC.txt to mention that CMake-based
build is now the preferred method with Visual Studio. The
project files will probably be removed after 5.4.x releases.
- Changes to #defines in config.h:
* HAVE_DECL_CLOCK_MONOTONIC was replaced by
HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC. The old macro was always defined
in configure-generated config.h to either 0 or 1. The
new macro is defined (to 1) only if the declaration of
CLOCK_MONOTONIC is available. This matches the way most
other config.h macros work and makes things simpler with
other build systems.
* HAVE_DECL_PROGRAM_INVOCATION_NAME was replaced by
HAVE_PROGRAM_INVOCATION_NAME for the same reason.
* Tests:
- Fixed test script compatibility with ancient /bin/sh
versions. Now the five test_compress_* tests should
no longer fail on Solaris 10.
- Added and refactored a few tests.
* Translations:
- Updated the Catalan and Esperanto translations.
- Added Korean and Ukrainian man page translations.
