[Bug 325] New: unalz - Decompression utility

http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325 Summary: unalz - Decompression utility Product: Package Reviews Version: Current Platform: All OS/Version: GNU/Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: Review Request AssignedTo: rpmfusion-package-review(a)rpmfusion.org ReportedBy: oget.fedora(a)gmail.com CC: rpmfusion-package-review(a)rpmfusion.org Blocks: 2 Estimated Hours: 0.0 Spec URL: http://oget.fedorapeople.org/review/unalz.spec SRPM URL: http://oget.fedorapeople.org/review/unalz-0.62-1.fc10.src.rpm Description: Unalz is a utility to decompress .alz files. It supports bzip2/raw format transformation, splitting the compressed file into smaller chunks (alz, a00, a01, ...), extract password protected .alz files, and CRC checks. rpmlint is silent. Alzip is a commercial software: http://www.altools.com/ unalz is a free decompressor for alzip (Korean): http://www.kipple.pe.kr/win/unalz/ This software normally comes with its own zlip and bzip2. I managed to patch it to use the system's zlib. But it uses a private header file of bzip2 (which is not in bzip2-devel package) and thus (part of) bzip2 has to be built in unalz. This is the way it is in Ubuntu too. Why rpmfusion? I had submitted this to Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477106 But after consulting people on #fedora-devel who can read Korean, we figured that the project webpage says: "it is free as in cost, but you are prohibited from on commercial distribution in magazines or CD" So it is non-free and hence got rejected from Fedora. The author did not reply to my email I sent 4 weeks ago to clear the license issue, therefore I brought this to rpmfusion. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
