The plan is to move back to sourceware: >> https://sourceware.org/bzip2/ >> https://sourceware.org/pub/bzip2/ I thought it lived on sourceware.org once upon a time. Unfortunately at the moment the version is at 1.0.2 on sourceware and the most current version is 1.0.6. Your idea in the thread is good but someone already squats on bzip2.org and register.com has parked bzip.org on a search page of links to similar software. You mentioned github in the thread and I see that Enthought has a fork that is 5 years old of 1.0.6, I assume because their using it somewhere. There's one issue that is 3 years old with no response to it complaining about bzdiff leaving empty files in /tmp. -- cyg Simple -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
