XZ Utils XZ Utils
-------- ========
Warning Important
This is a beta version. Don't trust the files produced by This is a beta version. The .xz file format is now stable though,
this version of the software - not even if the software can which means that files created with the beta version will be
uncompress the files properly! This is because the file format uncompressible with all future XZ Utils versions too (assuming
isn't officially frozen yet although changes are very unlikely. that there are no catastrophical bugs).
So please test a lot, but don't use for anything serious yet. liblzma API is pretty stable now, although minor tweaks may still
be done if really needed. The ABI is not stable yet. The major
soname will be bumped right before the first stable release.
Probably it will be bumped to something like .so.5.0.0 because
some distributions using the alpha versions already had to use
other versions than .so.0.0.0.
Excluding the Doxygen style docs in libilzma API headers, the
documentation in this package (including the rest of this
README) is not very up to date, and may contain incorrect or
misleading information.
