Overview

Request 1154009 accepted

- Update to version 23.01:
* The page "Language" in 7-Zip's menu Tools/Options now shows
information about selected translation, including the number of
translated lines.
* Some bugs were fixed.
- Version 23.00:
* 7-Zip now can use new ARM64 filter for compression to 7z and xz
archives. ARM64 filter can increase compression ratio for data
containing executable files compiled for ARM64 (AArch64)
architecture. Also 7-Zip now parses executable files (that have
exe and dll filename extensions) before compressing, and it
selects appropriate filter for each parsed file:
+ BCJ or BCJ2 filter for x86 executable files,
+ ARM64 filter for ARM64 executable files.
Previous versions by default used x86 filter BCJ or BCJ2 for
all exe/dll files.
* Default section size for BCJ2 filter was changed from 64 MiB
to 240 MiB. It can increase compression ratio for executable
files larger than 64 MiB.
* UDF: support was improved.
* cpio: support for hard links.
* Some changes and optimizations in WIM creation code.
* When new 7-Zip creates multivolume archive, 7-Zip keeps in open
state only volumes that still can be changed. Previous versions
kept all volumes in open state until the end of the archive
creation.
* 7-Zip for Linux and macOS now can reduce the number of
simultaneously open files, when 7-Zip opens, extracts or creates
multivolume archive. It allows to avoid the failures for cases
with big number of volumes, bacause there is a limitation for
number of open files allowed for a single program in Linux and
macOS.
* There are optimizations in code for 7-Zip's context menu in
Explorer: the speed of preparing of the menu showing was
improved for cases when big number of files were selected by
external program for context menu that contains 7-Zip menu
commands.
* There are changes in code for the drag-and-drop operations to
and from 7-Zip File Manager. And the drag-and-drop operation
with right button of mouse now is supported for some cases.
* The bugs were fixed:
+ ZIP archives: if multithreaded zip compression was performed
with more than one file to stdout stream (-so switch), 7-zip
didn't write "data descriptor" for some files.
+ ext4 archives: 7-Zip couldn't correctly extract symbolic link
to directory from ext4 archives.
+ HFS and APFS archives: 7-Zip incorrectly decoded uncompressed
blocks (64 KiB) in compressed forks.
+ HFS : zlib without Adler supported
+ Some another bugs were fixed.
- Enable ARM64 ASM introduced in 23.01
- Add missing man pages for 7z / 7za / 7zr / 7zz.
This solves bsc#1204856.
- Fix build on SLE-15-SP6
* fix-avx-sle.patch
