Other releases
Release Notes: This release includes some build system changes to allow static and dynamic libxar. Finer grained makefile variables are used to allow build systems to more easily control where things are installed. Two bugs from the rpm5 project were fixed. A bug which was triggered when xar is processing a malformed table of contents was fixed. A bug in the "configure" script was fixed to properly setup acl support on Mac OS X 10.5.

Archiving EAs with non-UTF-8 characters in the name is fixed. Archiving ACLs on Mac OS X 10.4 should be fixed. There are some API enhancements. Finder creation dates are preserved.
