Hello, I am pleased to announce the release of libchop 0.4. Libchop is a C and Scheme library, and a tool set aimed as a building block for distributed data storage and data backup applications.
The homepage is located at: http://www.nongnu.org/libchop/ Here are the compressed sources: http://dl.sv.nongnu.org/releases/libchop/libchop-0.4.tar.gz (1.2MB) Here are the GPG detached signatures[*]: http://dl.sv.nongnu.org/releases/libchop/libchop-0.4.tar.gz.sig Here are the MD5 and SHA1 checksums: 50ab7594e908c298f79b2e91fbadd827 libchop-0.4.tar.gz 4bf83df629ed6512aded0c5ba4ace6c11af3a4a8 libchop-0.4.tar.gz This release was bootstrapped with the following tools: Autoconf 2.68 Automake 1.11.1 Libtool 2.4 Gnulib v0.0-5070-gbd5d1e6 Libchop implements storage techniques such as content-based addressing, content hash keys, Merkle trees, similarity detection, and lossless compression. It makes it easy to combine them in different ways. The ‘chop-archiver’ tool provides access to these features from the command line; along with ‘chop-block-server’, it allows for remote data storage. Example uses of these tools are given in the manual. Excerpt from the ‘NEWS’ file: * New features ** New Scheme bindings for GNU Guile 2.0 See "Guile Bindings" in the manual for details. The Guile 1.8 bindings based on G-Wrap will be removed in a future version. ** New `--archive-fd' option for `chop-archiver' This allows the archival of data from an arbitrary file descriptor, as in "tar cf - /foo/bar | chop-archiver --archive-fd". ** New `CTR' and `AESWRAP' cipher modes (from libgcrypt) ** New function: `chop_file_stream_open_fd' * Packaging improvement, bug fixes See `ChangeLog' for details. Feedback welcome! Thanks, Ludo’.
