2009-09-19	Various changes.	Lasse Collin	1	-2/+11
	Separate a few reusable components from XZ Utils specific code. The reusable code is now in "tuklib" modules. A few more could be separated still, e.g. bswap.h. Fix some bugs in lzmainfo. Fix physmem and cpucores code on OS/2. Thanks to Elbert Pol for help. Add OpenVMS support into physmem. Add a few #ifdefs to ease building XZ Utils on OpenVMS. Thanks to Jouk Jansen for the original patch.
2009-07-06	Use sed instead of $(SED) so that we don't need to	Lasse Collin	1	-3/+3
	use AC_PROG_SED. We don't do anything fancy with sed, so this should work OK. libtool 2.2 sets SED but 1.5 doesn't, so $(SED) happened to work when using libtool 2.2.
2009-06-30	Build system fixes	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+19
	Don't use libtool convenience libraries to avoid recently discovered long-standing subtle but somewhat severe bugs in libtool (at least 1.5.22 and 2.2.6 are affected). It was found when porting XZ Utils to Windows <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool/2009-06/msg00070.html> but the problem is significant also e.g. on GNU/Linux. Unless --disable-shared is passed to configure, static library built from a set of convenience libraries will contain PIC objects. That is, while libtool builds non-PIC objects too, only PIC objects will be used from the convenience libraries. On 32-bit x86 (tested on mobile XP2400+), using PIC instead of non-PIC makes the decompressor 10 % slower with the default CFLAGS. So while xz was linked against static liblzma by default, it got the slower PIC objects unless --disable-shared was used. I tend develop and benchmark with --disable-shared due to faster build time, so I hadn't noticed the problem in benchmarks earlier. This commit also adds support for building Windows resources into liblzma and executables.
2009-06-27	Create correct symlinks even when	Lasse Collin	1	-3/+6
	--program-{prefix,suffix,transform} is passed to configure.
2009-06-26	Fix @variables@ to $(variables) in Makefile.am files.	Lasse Collin	1	-9/+10
	Fix the ordering of libgnu.a and LTLIBINTL on the linker command line and added missing LTLIBINTL to tests/Makefile.am.
2009-06-04	Added xzdec man page.	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+11

2009-04-13	Put the interesting parts of XZ Utils into the public domain.	Lasse Collin	1	-10/+3
	Some minor documentation cleanups were made at the same time.
2009-02-07	Make it easy to choose if command line tools should be	Lasse Collin	1	-2/+3
	linked statically or dynamically against liblzma. The default is still to use static liblzma, but it can now be changed by passing --enable-dynamic to configure. Thanks to Mike Frysinger for the original patch. Fixed a few minor bugs in configure.ac.
2008-11-20	Build xzdec and lzmadec from xzdec.c. xzdec supports only .xz	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+6
	files and lzmadec only .lzma files.
2008-11-19	Renamed lzma to xz and lzmadec to xzdec. We create symlinks	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+29
	lzma, unlzma, and lzcat in "make install" for backwards compatibility with LZMA Utils 4.32.x; I'm not sure if this should be the default though.
