Version 7.02 - 11 March 2018, by Martin Whitaker

- gendistrib: avoid errors when hdlists are not stored in the main media_info
- gendistrib: fix bug when media.cfg links directly to main hdlist

Version 7.01 - 3 September 2017, by Thierry Vignaud

- do not load file sizes from synthesis in non incremental mode (minor
  performance optimisation)
- fix "Unescaped left brace in regex is illegal here in regex"

Version 7.00 - 7 September 2014, by Thierry Vignaud

- synthesis format change:
  o generates @recommends@ lines (instead of @suggests@ ones) on mga5+

Version 6.6 - 6 September 2014, by Thierry Vignaud

- switch from 'xz -5 --text' to 'xz -7' (much faster for little space overhead)

  (keeping .lzma extension for compatibility, just adding the magic value)

- compress synthesis files with '--text' flag passed to xz (shrinks
  synthesis.cz by 4-7%)

Version 6.3 - 25 June 2012, by Thierry Vignaud

- actually compress xml files with '--text' flag passed to lzma (shrinks
  files.xml.lzma by 25% \o/)
- compress synthesis with XZ too (40% saving)
- drop compatibility with perl-URPM < 1.48 (ie < 2007.1)
- drop genhdlist-old (genhdlist2 was introduced 4 years ago)

Version 6.2 - 27 February 2012, by Thierry Vignaud

- keep real filesizes in synthesis

Version 6.1 - 09 September 2011, by Thierry Vignaud

- force locale to be C (mga#95, Pascal Terjan)
  (when packages contain translated summary/description genhdlist2 would embed
  them instead of the English version)

Version 6.0 - 15 December 2010, by Per Øyvind Karlsen

- compress xml files with '--text' flag passed to lzma (shrinks
  files.xml.lzma by 25% \o/)

Version 5.9 - 20 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- gendistrib:
  o don't call genhdlist2 with --no-md5sum for no good reason

Version 5.7 - 23 September 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o with --versioned, create "versioned" metadata
  o add xml header to xml files generated
- gendistrib:
  o if "xml-info" is set in media.cfg, pass --xml-info to genhdlist2
- parsehdlist, rpm2header
  o fix support for rpm5
  o update deprecated code
- genhdlist-old
  o genhdlist is now renamed as genhdlist-old

Version 5.6 - 18 March 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- gendistrib:
  o "askmedia" and "suppl" must not modify gendistrib behaviour (#39017)

Version 5.5 - 5 March 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o use utf8:: functions instead of Encode
    (to be able to work with only perl base modules)
- parsehdlist, rpm2header:
  o add support for rpm5

Version 5.4 - 26 February 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- parsehdlist, rpm2header:
  o do not add/use FILENAME_TAG and FILESIZE_TAG to/in hdlist anymore

Version 5.3.6 - 5 February 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o fix writing utf8 in xml info files (#37482)

Version 5.3.5 - 15 January 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o rename --xml-media-info into --xml-info
    (to be coherent with urpmi)

Version 5.3.4 - 18 December 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o add --no-hdlist option (to be used by urpmi for --probe-rpms)

Version 5.3.3 - 17 December 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o generate {info,changelog,files}.xml.lzma when they already exist, 
    or when --xml-media-info is used
  o error message when parse_hdlist (partially) fail
  o handle old-rpms.lst (to be generated by youri)
    which will allow keeping rpms for some time without having in hdlist
    (useful for installs which expect the pkgs to be in sync in hdlist during
    the full install time)
    it will also allow keeping deprecated packages for some time

Version 5.3.2 - 22 June 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

- genhdlist2:
  o add --allow-empty-media
  o fix MD5SUM generation
  o allow using this script with perl-URPM 1.47 (ie mdv2007.0)

  o media/media_info/hdlist_xxx_yyy.cz is now a symlink to media/xxx/yyy/media_info/hdlist.cz
  o synthesis.hdlist_xxx_yyy.cz and pubkey_xxx_yyy are also symlinks now
- parsehdlist:
  o display pkgsize with --all (Christiaan Welvaart)
