- Description:
- Lzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar to the one
of gzip or bzip2. Lzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip and compresses
more than bzip2, which makes it well suited for software distribution and
data archiving. Lzip is a clean implementation of the LZMA algorithm.
The lzip file format is designed for long-term data archiving. It is
clean, provides very safe four factor integrity checking, and is backed
by the recovery capabilities of lziprecover.

archivers/lzip: Update to 1.24.1
This doesn't bring relevant changes (only a build fix for a different
platform and different casing for some term in the docs), still go for
it to avoid people wondering about it and tools flagging it. |

archivers/lzip: Update to 1.24
This includes the following changes:
- New option --empty-error, which forces exit status 2 if any empty
member is found.
- New option -marking-error, which forces exit status 2 if the first
LZMA byte is non-zero in any member.
- Improved diagnostics.
- The option -o / --output preserves dates, permissions, and ownership
of the file when (de)compressing exactly one file.
- It also creates missing intermediate directories when writing a file. |

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

to match gzip. |

archivers/lzip: Update to 1.22
This includes the following changes:
- Report an error if a file name is empty.
- Make '-o' behave like '-c', but writing to file instead of stdout.
- Do not open output if input is a terminal.
- Replace 'decompressed', 'compressed' with 'out', 'in' in output.
- Several fixes and improvements, improved test coverage.
On the way switch from PORTVERSION to DISTVERSION and add a LICENSE_FILE
(while the license itselfs does not change from GPLv2).

Install texinfo files (GNU info) into ${PREFIX}/share/info
After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.
Now texinfo is not in base on any of the supported version of FreeBSD
it is possible to proceed to this move and it is easier to do than
the manpage change.
Other benefit than consistency are less patching: all build tools but
cmake are expecting info files to be under share/info and cmake (patched here)
was having an exception for BSD so the patch makes FreeBSD case less
specific for them

archivers/lzip: Unbreak fetch with LOCAL
The lzip developers do something very annoying. When they issue a new
release, they remove the previous release's tarball in .gz format.
They keep the tarball in .lz format, but move it to the "old"
subdirectory. The result is that gzipped tarballs for lzip get very
scarce, and requiring lz to unzip lz is not an option. I don't
normally store distfiles for other maintainers, but it appears that
many folks have been asking for this port to be fixed, so I made
an exception and put a copy of lzip tarball in LOCAL/marino.
