-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Dec 15 11:48:41 CET 2006 - schwab@suse.de

- Update to gzip 1.3.9.
  * No major changes; only porting fixes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 12 10:10:38 CET 2006 - schwab@suse.de

- Update to gzip 1.3.8.
  * Fix some gzip problems:
    - A security fix from Debian 1.3.5-5 was inadvertently omitted.
    - The assembler is now invoked with --noexecstack if supported,
      so that gzip can better resist stack-smashing attacks.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Dec  7 11:19:36 CET 2006 - schwab@suse.de

- Update to gzip 1.3.7.
  * Fix some gzip problems:
    - Refuse to compress setuid or setgid files, or files with the sticky bit.
    - Fix more race conditions in setting file permissions and owner,
      removing output files, following symbolic links, and dealing with
      special files.
    - Remove most of the code working around ENAMETOOLONG deficiencies.
      Systems with those deficiencies are long-dead, and the workarounds
      had race conditions on modern hosts.
    - Catch CPU time and file size limit signals, too.
    - Check for read errors when closing files.
    - Fix a core dump caused by a stray abort mistakenly introduced in 1.3.6.
  * Fix some gzexe problems:
    - Improve resistance to denial-of-service attacks.
    - Fix some quoting and escaping bugs.
    - Do not assume /tmp is sticky (though it should be!).
    - Do not assume the working directory can be written.
    - Rely on PATH in the generated executable, as the man page says.
    - Don't assume IFS is sane.
    - Exit with signal's status, if signaled.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec  4 13:08:18 CET 2006 - schwab@suse.de

- Update to gzip 1.3.6.
  * Fix some race conditions in setting file time stamps, permissions, and owner.
  * Fix some race conditions in signal handling.
  * When gzip exits due to a signal, it exits with the signal's status, not 1.
  * gzip now restores file time stamps to the resolution supported by the
    time-setting primitives of the operating system, typically 1 microsecond.
    Formerly it restored them only to the nearest second.
  * gzip -r no longer attempts to reset the last-access times of directories
    it reads, as this messes up when other processes are reading the directories.
  * The options --version and --help now work on all gzip-installed executables,
    and now use a format similar to other GNU programs.
  * The manual is now distributed under the terms of the GNU Free
    Documentation License without invariant sections or cover texts.
  * Port to current versions of Autoconf, Automake, and Gnulib.
