7. By Laszlo Ersek on 2010-03-03

* New upstream release implements process termination with SIGPIPE and
  SIGXFSZ. This matches the traditional UNIX(R) utility behavior more, and
  should improve cooperation with GNU tar.
* Adapt the "man-inst-paths" patch to the updated manual page.

6. By Laszlo Ersek on 2009-12-28

* New upstream release cleans up theoretical portability problems:
  - don't rely on character constants '1' and '9' being encoded in ASCII,
  - replace non-C89 flexible array members (struct hacks) with ordinary
    pointer dereferences.

5. By Laszlo Ersek on 2009-12-01

New upstream release checks for most errno macros before relying on them
(Closes: #559052).

4. By Laszlo Ersek on 2009-10-29

* New upstream release fixes possible undefined behavior, reported by Paul
  Wise in http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2009/10/msg00470.html.
* Adapt the "debian-sanity" target to the new environment variables
  introduced by lbzip2-0.16rc1.
* Following http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2009/10/msg00470.html:
  - Add -Wall to CFLAGS.
  - Add descriptive headers to the makefile and manual page patches.

3. By Laszlo Ersek <email address hidden> on 2009-04-05

* New upstream release. From the upstream ChangeLog:
  - fix a (theoretically occurring) wrongful "premature EOF" error in the
    single-worker decompressor,
  - clean up buffer sizes for IO-friendliness and logical independece,
  - document the derivation of the multiple-workers decompressor's splitter
    block size,
  - enable users to track peak memory usage with "malloc_trace.pl".
* Follow upstream's change from -O3 to -O2 in "debian/rules".
  - Since lbzip2 is multi-threaded, "-fpredictive-commoning" (enabled at -O3)
    seems scary.
  - See also Don Armstrong's mail <email address hidden>
    (http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2009/02/msg00155.html).

2. By Laszlo Ersek <email address hidden> on 2009-03-16

* New upstream release.
* Modify the following files in order to comply with Standards-Version 3.8.1,
  specifically Debian Policy Manual 4.9.1, "nocheck" build option:
  - Makefile: the "install" target depends on $(INSTDEP) now, instead of the
    fixed "debian-sanity" target.
  - debian/rules: if "nocheck" is absent, make installation depend on
    "debian-sanity", like before; if "nocheck" is present, make installation
    depend only on "lbzip2".
  - debian/control: bump Standards-Version.
