libtar 1.0.2 - 6/21/00 ------------ - tar_set_file_perms() now calls chown() only if the effective user ID is 0 (workaround for IRIX and HP-UX, which allow file giveaways) - tar_set_file_perms() now calls chmod() or lchmod() after chown() (this fixes a problem with extracting setuid files under Linux) - removed calls to fchown() and fchmod() from tar_extract_regfile() - fixed bugs in th_read() which didn't set errno properly - removed various unused variables ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 1.0.1 - 4/1/00 ------------ - removed libgen.h include from dirname and basename compat code - added lib/fnmatch.c compatability module from OpenBSD - fixed several objdirs bugs in libtar/Makefile.in - misc Makefile changes (added $CPPFLAGS support, added -o flag to compile commands, use $CFLAGS on link line, etc) - removed "inline" keyword from all source files to prevent portability problems - updated README ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 1.0 - 1/2/00 ---------- - various portability fixes - "make install" now runs mkencap and epkg if they're available - libmisc is now integrated into libtar ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5.6 beta - 12/16/99 ----------------- - changed API to allow better error reporting via errno - added manpages to document libtar API - replaced symbolic_mode() call with strmode() compatibility code ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5.5 beta - 11/16/99 ----------------- - fixed conditional expression in extract.c to check if we're overwriting a pre-existing file - many improvements to libtar.c driver program (better error checking, added -C and -v options, etc) - changed API to include list of canned file types, instead of passing function pointers to tar_open() - fixed tar_set_file_perms() to not complain about chown() if not root and not to call utime() on a symlink - added hash code for extracting hard links in other directory paths - fixed tar_extract_glob() to only print filenames if TAR_VERBOSE option is set - replaced GNU basename(), dirname(), and strdup() compatibility code with OpenBSD versions - configure performs super-anal checking of basename() and dirname() ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5.4 beta - 11/13/99 ----------------- - portability fix: use ranlib instead of ar -s - misc fixes in append.c, extract.c, and wrapper.c to do error checking - fixed a bug in tar_append_file() in append.c which added some garbage characters to encoded symlink names (wasn't NULL-terminating the result of readlink()) - fixed a bug in symbolic_mode() in output.c concerning setuid and setgid bit displaying - fixed tar_extract_all() in wrapper.c to only call print_long_ls() if the TAR_VERBOSE option is set - added libtar_version constant string to handle.c for external configure scripts to detect what version of libtar is installed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5.3 beta - 09/27/99 ----------------- - fixed mk_dirs_for_file() to avoid broken dirname() implementations - misc portability fixes - merged old "compat" and "libds" directories into new "misc" directory and cleaned up Makefiles ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5.2 beta - 09/10/99 ----------------- - use calloc() instead of malloc() in tar_open() to fix a bounds-checking bug in tar_extract_all() - fix tar_extract_all() to properly honor the prefix argument ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5.1 beta - 08/27/99 ----------------- - misc portability fixes ---------------------------------------------------------------------- libtar 0.5 beta - 07/05/99 --------------- - first public release
