GNU xorriso 1.3.2 released



Hi,

libburnia project is pleased to announce the release of version 1.3.2
of GNU xorriso, a ISO 9660 Rock Ridge filesystem manipulator. Available
on GNU FTP mirrors as
  xorriso/xorriso-1.3.2.tar.gz

It creates, loads, manipulates and writes ISO 9660 filesystem images with
Rock Ridge extensions. Optionally it supports hard links, ACLs, xattr,
and MD5 checksums.
xorriso can load the management information of existing ISO images and it
writes the session results to optical media or to filesystem objects.
Vice versa xorriso is able to copy file objects from ISO 9660 filesystems
to disk.

A special property of xorriso is that it needs neither an external ISO 9660
formatter program nor an external burn program for CD, DVD or BD but rather
incorporates the libraries of libburnia-project.org .


Novelties:

* Bug fix: -find -exec "sort_weight" did not mark the image as having
           pending changes

* Bug fix: -backslash_codes "with_program_arguments" was interpreted too late

* Bug fix: Missing or empty parameter with -dus was interpreted as "*" rather
           than "."

* Bug fix: readline history was spammed by -msg_op parsing and pipe loops

* Bug fix: xorriso aborted on SIGCONT, SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU

* Improved granularity of SCSI log time measurement, now with timestamp

* New -pacifier behavior code "interval="

* New -as mkisofs options --sort-weight-list and --sort-weight-patterns

* New -format mode "without_spare" (for BD-RE)

* New command -named_pipe_loop

* New command -sh_style_result

* New -msg_op opcodes "parse_silently" and "parse_bulk_silently"

* New command -application_use and new -as mkisofs option --application_use
