Which are the supportet (possible) > values of each of the options? -- Numbers from 0 up to 6? The canonical way to use the BZIP2 algorithm on Linux is through the bzip2 program. Its man page lists the following: >-1 (or --fast) to -9 (or --best) > Set the block size to 100 k, 200 k ... 900 k when > compressing. > Has no effect when decompressing.

And --best merely selects the default behaviour. The other two require you to look a bit further than just lowercasing :), but I think they both use the DEFLATE compression method. On Linux, you will often use gzip to create archives with DEFLATE. Its man page says: >-# --fast --best > Regulate the speed of compression using the specified digit > #, > where -1 or --fast indicates the fastest compression method > (less > compression) and -9 or --best indicates the slowest > compression > method (best compression).

Possible values for --compress-level and --bzip2-compress-level
Hello everyone, I have a question to the options --compress-level and --bzip2-compress-level. Which are the supportet (possible) values of each of the options? -- Numbers from 0 up to 6? --- Here is the description of the both options in the GPG Manual: -z n --compress-level n --bzip2-compress-level n Set compression level to n for the ZIP and ZLIB compression algorithms. The default is to use the default compression level of zlib (normally 6). --bzip2-compress-level sets the compression level for the BZIP2 compression algorithm (defaulting to 6 as well). This is a different option from --compress-level since BZIP2 uses a significant amount of memory for each additional compression level. -z sets both. A value of 0 for n disables compression.

1.4.11 release candidate (was: Overflow bug in bzip2)
Hi, The Windows installer version of GnuPG 1.4 uses a statically linked bzip library. Thus the bzip2 bug affects this version. We have not done a gnupg 1.4 release for more than a year. I believe it is best to first do a release candidate. There a couple of bug fixes collected over the last year to go into 1.4.11, but nothing really important. However to build the 1.4 windows installer we better use the new source along with an updated bzip. Here we go: GnuPG 1.4.11 release candidate 1 is availabale at ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/gnupg/gnupg-1.4.11rc1.tar.bz2 (3360k) ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/gnupg/gnupg-1.4.11rc1.tar.bz2.sig and the Windows installer with the updated bzip2 at: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/gnupg/gnupg-w32cli-1.4.11rc1.exe (1607k) ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/gnupg/gnupg-w32cli-1.4.11rc1.exe.sig SHA-1 checksums are: 56a9da797bf17f6447f1243ac682d4e7b91e24f0 gnupg-1.4.11rc1.tar.bz2 c6f421a7874c734d1d66bd756d1a5ee3cd5a44ee gnupg-w32cli-1.4.11rc1.exe Please check it out and report problems to this list.

BZIP2 in 1.4.8
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 I have a Correspondent who has built 1.4.8 from the tar.gz for use on Ubuntu. For some reason the Build, even after passing all 27 tests does not list BZIP2 as an available for of compression.:-\ Since the PK is distributed with BZIP2 in the Preference string this has resulted in receiving messages which cannot be decrypted.:( The tar ball was downloaded from the gnu.org Site and the checksum verified. I have been building from the SVN commits and BZIP2 is available but I was wondering if it had been dropped for some reason in the 'Official Release'? If BZIP2 has been omitted from the Release then there are a lot of folks who have this compression method listed in their Keys and even more who have it set in their 'personal-compress-preferences' string. I see the Options for --bzip2-compress-level n - --bzip2-decompress-lowmem in the 1.4.8 Manual. How when are they supposed to be utilized to compensate for the lack of BZIP2? Which file should I advise Her to add to Her Build?

Probably because I have libbz2-dev installed; see below. Second, Ubuntu ships with 1.4.6. It's a little bit old, but serviceable, and Ubuntu is tracking upstream security bugfixes. If your correspondent is just interested in security fixes, tell him/her to use the Ubuntu-supplied GnuPG. Third, most Linux distros (including Ubuntu) separate files into two different groups: the files you need to run programs that need a certain feature, and the files you need to compile programs that need a certain feature. With bz2 the package libbz2-1.0 contains what you need to run programs that use bz2; the package libbz2-dev contains what you need to compile programs that use bz2. I would suggest the following course of action: 1. sudo apt-get update 2. sudo apt-get upgrade 3. sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev Then try to recompile GnuPG 1.4.8 and see if that fixes the problem.

I may REALLY need it there in the future once MS Windows is dead and the virus writers move on to Linux and back to where the very first virus was written - TO UNIX! Strange - it seems like they would have provided bzip2 with the libraries and header files by now in most distributions by default. Does anybody know the reason why they are not doing it? Happy bzip2'ing, but I really would advise that if you are going to be sending to MS Windows people to use either gzip or zip as your default compression algorithm. Most Windows compression programs can handle them, but one of the things I do to contain the Trojan files while they are on Windows is to bzip2 them on Linux.
