./archivers/brotli, Generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.2.0, Package name: brotli-1.2.0, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data
using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding
and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best
currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed
with deflate but offers more dense compression.

Log message:
brotli: updated to 1.2.0

1.2.0

SECURITY
 - python: added `Decompressor::can_accept_more_data` method and optional
           `output_buffer_limit` argument `Decompressor::process`;
           that allows mitigation of unexpectedly large output;
           reported by Charles Chan (https://github.com/charleswhchan)

Added
 - **decoder / encoder: added static initialization to reduce binary size**
 - python: allow limiting decoder output (see SECURITY section)
 - CLI: `brcat` alias; allow decoding concatenated brotli streams
 - kt: pure Kotlin decoder
 - cgo: support "raw" dictionaries
 - build: Bazel modules

Removed
 - java: dropped `finalize()` for native entities

Fixed
 - java: in `compress` pass correct length to native encoder

Improved
 - build: install man pages
 - build: updated / fixed / refined Bazel buildfiles
 - encoder: faster encoding
 - cgo: link via pkg-config
 - python: modernize extension / allow multi-phase module initialization

Changed
 - decoder / encoder: static tables use "small" model (allows 2GiB+ \ 
binaries)

Log message:
Fix rpath arguments in brotli pkgconfig files

The pkgconfig files for brotli had a direct -R missing -Wl, this breaks
the linking step when used. Remove them and use PKGCONFIG_OVERRIDE instead.
