The bzip2 package has been updated to version 1.0.5-10. bzip2 is a patent-unencumbered but highly effective compression library, and also provides the bzip2.exe / bunzip2.exe utilities. This is a packaging update.
[[ compiled using gcc-3.4.4-3 ]]
This is the first release specific for cygwin-1.7; the only differences between this package and the simultaneously-released zlib-1.2.3-3 for cygwin-1.5 are documentation related (the README references cygport-0.9.4 and cygwin-1.7.0-41, and the /usr/share/doc/ layout is influenced by the cygport changes between 0.4.x and 0.9.x).
CHANGES since 1.0.5-2
========================
o Fork for cygwin-1.7 development
o build with stock cygport 0.9.4
o import fix from mingw-bzip2 (it's a win32-, not cygwin-,
specific fix, but I like to keep the source code synced).
o update hint files
