I am pleased to announce the release of lunzip 1.2.

Lunzip is a decompressor for lzip files. It is written in C and its small size makes it well suited for embedded devices or software installers that need to decompress files but do not need compression capabilities.

The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lunzip.html

The sources can be downloaded from
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/lzip/

The md5sums are:
222c31c88c270a634d3880f60c9946b9  lunzip-1.2.tar.lz
705348bc67e7439ecd7bfd9eec40b0f1  lunzip-1.2.tar.gz

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending ".sig" to the URL.

Changes in version 1.2:

  * Decompression time has been reduced by 12%.

  * The target "install-as-lzip" has been added to the Makefile.

  * The target "install-bin" has been added to the Makefile.


Please send bug reports and suggestions to address@hidden

If you are packaging lunzip for a distribution, please, try to use the lzipped source tarball, as this can improve the support for the lzip format in packaging systems[1][2]. Thanks.
