It's not so simple, because it would require a copy of the lzma sources 
and I don't like the idea of distributing external sources with upx.

I noted we have now lzma-dev and lzma-source packages in the 
experimental suite, however they contain too little lzma source files to 
be useful for upx. The following LZMA sources seem to be needed:

One way to fix the bug would be to add the missing files to lzma-dev (or 
provide full source in lzma-source). However convincing upstream lzma 
authors to provide proper development library  would be much better.

Actually, the upstream  author is working on a  development library, but
nothing seems to  have been released yet.  But as you  said, it would be
possible to add the missing  files to lzma-dev package. However, I don't
know yet when I will have the time to work on it because I have a lot of
work ATM,  feel free to submit a  bug report on lzma-dev  and/or a patch

No news. As I wrote previously, adding lzma support for upx would
require to have more lzma sources available than currently provided by
both lzma-dev and lzma-source packages.

I've just compiled upx with lzma and it seems that upx needs 45 lzma
sources from version 4.43 (the current Debian version) or only 9 files
from lzma 4.65. I'm attaching full lists of the files.
I've also tried lzma 9.20, the latest upstream version, but upx doesn't
support that version yet (i.e. failed to compile).

robert

I am currently working on updating lzma to 9.22 (basically, apart from
cherry-picking and testing, I am ready to upload). This version of the
package drops lzma-source.

Please see if the package at [1] suits your needs.

Thanks a lot, upx compiles with the files from new lzma-dev and seems to
work fine.

However, I've got one suggestion. The LzmaEnc.c contains code like:
	#ifndef _7ZIP_ST
	#include "LzFindMt.h"
	#endif
Even though I can add -D_7ZIP_ST to the compiler flags, I think the
better option would be to define _7ZIP_ST at the top of the file itself,
so anybody could compile the file without any surprises.
Alternatively you can provide a pre-compiled versions of *.c files in a
liblzma.a static library.

Thanks,
robert

Regarding liblzma, have you considered using xz' packages?

I was looking into it yesterday, but it seems the liblzma-dev API is not
compatible with the original lzma API.


Markus and Laszlo, do you have any plans of switching to xz-utils
(http://tukaani.org/xz/) in upx?

Well, unless there are real advantages (faster speed or better
compression ratio), I do not think we want to work on this now. But
patches are always welcome :-)

there are no plans to change our lzma usage in the near future. (Updating lzma
requires much testing and benchmarking, and actually newer lzma versions
sometimes even compress worse and/or slower without proper parameter finetuning.)

So for the moment I'd suggest to include lzma465.tar with the upx source
package, much like Fedora has done - please see upx-3.07-2.fc15.src.rpm at
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=217744 .

Cheers,
Markus

That's not a recommended practice to do this, quite the contrary.
Just tell me if something more is needed in the package I provided
earlier in the bug report.

FYI, I am planning to upload this evening in experimental.

I agree. For me it's just not a good idea to put two unrelated sources
into one source package. It's harder to maintain it that way.

Nothing more is required.

I've just uploaded upx-ucl with lzma enabled into experimental as well.

Thanks,

When do you plan to upload it to unstable?

upx-ucl has been in experimental for 3 months already, so I thought it 
could be good idea to upload it to unstable, but I've noticed that lzma 
9.22 is still in experimental only.

Regards,
robert
