• Bug#1064857: unar: New xz-utils print warnings on stderr

    From Sebastian Andrzej Siewior@21:1/5 to All on Mon Feb 26 19:10:01 2024
    Package: unar
    Version: 1.10.7+ds1+really1.10.1-2
    Severity: important

    xz-utils 5.6.0 has been uploaded to unstable. A changed behaviour of
    `xz' is now that mutlti threaded compress/ decompression is now enabled
    by default. This in turn leads to warnings if the requested amount of
    memory exceeds the available amount. A snippet from
    https://ci.debian.net/packages/u/unar/testing/armel/43341293/
    | 115s foo.tar.xz: Tar in XZ
    | 115s foo/ (dir)... OK.
    | 115s foo/bar (4 B)... OK.
    | 115s foo/baz (4 B)... OK.
    | 115s Successfully extracted to "foo".
    | 116s autopkgtest [10:53:54]: test tar: -----------------------]
    | ▾ test tar: test results
    | 116s autopkgtest [10:53:54]: test tar: - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - -
    | 116s tar FAIL stderr: xz: Reduced the number of threads from 16 to 8 to not exceed the memory usage limit of 1400 MiB
    | 116s autopkgtest [10:53:54]: test tar: - - - - - - - - - - stderr - - - - - - - - - -

    Allowing output on stderr would be a possible tix.
