** Description changed:
Please sync p7zip 15.09+dfsg-4 (universe) from Debian testing (main)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Rationale:
===========
* The version currently in xenial, 9.20.1, is 5 years old (released in
2011). It is very beneficial for the users to have this newer version in
the LTS. It has many improvements and fixes.
* The new version builds successfully on ppc64el, whereas the version in
xenial-proposed does not.
* The package comes from Debian testing, which means that:
- It compiles and up to date on all architectures it has previously been
compiled for in unstable;
- It does not have release-critical bugs;
- All of its dependencies are satisfiable by packages already in testing,
which is what the LTS is derived from;
- Installing the package does not break any packages currently in testing
* The Debian maintainer closed some launchpad bugs, which means that they
also look after Ubuntu bugs.

Changelog entries since current xenial version 9.20.1~dfsg.1-5:
p7zip (15.09+dfsg-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Upload to unstable.
* Mention in README.Debian that p7zip-full is needed for 7z archives
compressed with PPMD method (closes: #693509).
* Replace `7z' with `7zr' in the short description of p7zip to make
in consistent with the description of p7zip-full (closes: #636664).

-- Robert Luberda <[email protected]> Sun, 13 Mar 2016 09:54:38 +0100
p7zip (15.09+dfsg-3) experimental; urgency=low
* Refactor and enhance the p7zip wrapper script:
+ update the p7zip script to the version from the contrib directory;
+ make it call either 7za or 7zr command, whichever one is available;
+ remove `if [ "$?" != 0 ]' statements, as they won't work with `set -e';
+ use the standard error for reporting;
+ implement the --stdout, --force, --keep options (closes: #656340,
LP: #220646, #259239)
+ update p7zip(1) man page to shortly describe new options and give more
details about the script's behavior.
* Make p7zip-full package depend on p7zip package to have the p7zip command
available for the users of p7zip-full (LP: #1156460):
+ add necessary Depends, Breaks and Replaces;
+ convert /u/s/d/p7zip-full into a symlink to /u/s/d/p7zip;
+ install the html documentation into p7zip-full only and update
02-man.patch to mention that.
* Add 09-man-update.patch in order to:
+ update man pages based on the current usage output of the commands;
+ remove references to the -p{Password} option from the 7zr(1), as the
command does not support it (LP: #558609);
+ mention in 7z(1) that 7z might be slower than 7za (closes: #636667);
+ reword "the highest compression ratio" phrase to make it referring
to the 7z format instead of the 7z programs (closes: #636179).
* Reword the packages' descriptions and p7zip(1) man page similarly.
* Do not install documentation from fm sub-directory (which describes
Windows GUI not available in Debian); skip license.htm as well (to make
lintian happy).
* Add 10-drop-fm-doc.patch to remove from the html documentation references
to files mentioned in the previous entry. Also strip in the documentation
the .exe extension from 7z commands (LP: #181402).
* No longer install ChangeLog.gz to changelog.gz symlink.
* Replace duplicated style.css files with symlinks.
* Register html documentation in the doc-base system.
* Add 11-README-no-instructions.patch to remove build instructions from the
README file.
* Acknowledge the 9.20.1~dfsg.1-4.1 NMU (closes: #788734).
* Close Ubuntu's 'newer version available' report (LP: #1414569).
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.7.
* Add lintian override for a spelling typo in a word used as a proper name.
* Update README.Debian and add a NEWS entry for the dependency changes.
-- Robert Luberda <[email protected]> Sun, 06 Mar 2016 16:58:28 +0100
p7zip (15.09+dfsg-2) experimental; urgency=low
* Hopefully fix FTBFS on various architectures:
+ add 07-endian-detection.patch to detect byte ordering via macros
defined in <endian.h>.
+ add 08-mips.patch to rename a variable called `mips', as it clashed
with a name of preprocessor macro defined on mips and mipsel.
-- Robert Luberda <[email protected]> Mon, 15 Feb 2016 22:53:55 +0100
p7zip (15.09+dfsg-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream version (closes: #778289, LP: #1414569).
* Update patches for the new version:
+ remove most of 01-makefile.patch, especially remove the parts related
to multiarch libwgtk2.8-dev, which is no longer used by this package;
+ fix grammar error (closes: #706005) and update location of html
documentation in 02-man.patch; do the same for debian/p7zip*.docs
+ drop 04-no-strip-by-default.patch; patch empty OPTFLAGS in debian/rules
instead;
+ replace CVE-2015-1038.patch with Fedora's version taken from their
p7zip-15.09-10.fc24.src.rpm package;
+ add 06-s390.patch from Fedora to fix build on s390.
* Update 03-include-linux-makefile.patch to include arch-specific makefile
on amd64 (closes: #713964) and i386 archs. Both makefiles have compilation
of assembler sources enabled, so add build dependency on yasm on those
architectures.
* Use DEP-5 format for debian/copyright, and add Files-Excluded header
into it.
* Update debian/watch to allow uscan to repack upstream tarballs.
* Provide README.source with reasons of repacking (closes: #705595).
