(The corresponding new library flag is + WIMLIB_UNMOUNT_FLAG_NEW_IMAGE.) + + The LZMS ("recovery") compression chunk size, or "dictionary size", may + now be up to 1 GiB (1,073,741,824 bytes). + + The performance of LZX ("maximum") and LZMS ("recovery") compression + with large chunk sizes has been slightly improved. + Version 1.6.1: Stored files with size exactly 4 GiB (4,294,967,296 bytes) are now decompressed correctly. - Paths passed to wimlib_extract_paths() and wimlib_iterate_dir_tree() may - now use either forwards or backwards slashes, as documented. + Fixed a bug in the LZX compressor introduced in v1.5.3. The bug + occurred in an unlikely case, and due to validity checks it did not + affect successfully created archives. + + Fixed a minor compatibility issue with the LZMS compressor and + decompressor. This is *not* the default compression type and was only + introduced in v1.6.0. In the unlikely event that you created an + LZMS-compressed WIM with v1.6.0 and a checksum error is reported when + applying it with v1.6.1, decompress it with v1.6.0 then compress it with + v1.6.1. + + Memory usage for LZMS and LZX compression has been decreased. + + wimextract now allows wildcard characters in paths specified on the + command line. Also, the '--strict-wildcards' option has been removed + and replaced with the inverse option '--nullglob'. See the + documentation for wimextract for more details and changes. + + The wimlib_extract_files() function is now considered deprecated in + favor of wimlib_extract_paths(). + + Fixed more permissions problems when extracting files on Windows. + + A new '--no-attributes' option has been added to wimapply and + wimextract. The library flag is WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NO_ATTRIBUTES. + + The default chunk size is now set correctly when changing the + compression type of a WIM, for example with 'wimoptimize'. - Fixed a potential stack overflow when extracting solid archives (packed - streams) containing more than about 100000 files. + The '--metadata' option to wiminfo has been replaced with the + '--detailed' option to wimdir. - Memory usage for LZMS and LZX compression has been decreased slightly. + In relevant wimlib-imagex commands, '--solid' may now be used as an + alias for '--pack-streams'. Version 1.6.0: Support for extracting and updating the new version 3584 WIMs has been
