Release xz2 0.1.7? #97

Closed indygreg closed 2 years ago

indygreg commented 2 years ago

It has been a few... years since xz2 0.1.6. During that time, some dependencies were updated and the static crate feature was added.

The latter is interesting to me because I inadvertently slipped a reference to a /usr/local/opt/xz/lib/liblzma.5.dylib in some macOS Rust binaries I built in GitHub Actions. I can presumably work around this by forcing the linker to use the liblzma inside the macOS SDK. But it sure is tempting to lean on a static crate feature and eliminate the possibility of the shared library dependency.

Are there any plans for a 0.1.7 release? Is there anything I could do to help with one?

Sure thing I've just published. I haven't really touched this crate in quite some time and would be happy to hand it off if you're interested as well.

Thank you for publishing 0.1.7! I just upgraded to it and it seems to just work.

While I'm certainly technically capable of taking stewardship of this crate, I'm not the greatest maintainer in the world. My presence is intermittent (ex: the fact it took me 20 days to reply to you). I'd encourage you to find someone with more availability/interest than me. But if you can't find someone and/or desperately want to hand off ownership, I could shoulder that burden for you.

No worries, just figured I'd ask
