These are useful for extracting files from ZIP archives. ZIP archives are created with PKZIP or Info-ZIP utilities, primarily in a DOS environment. The UnZip package has some locale related issues. For a full explanation of the issues and some possible solutions, see the section of the . Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &unzip-md5sum; Download size: &unzip-size; Estimated disk space required: &unzip-buildsize; Estimated build time: &unzip-time; Additional Downloads Required patch: Required patch: Recommended patch: Installation of UnZip Install UnZip by running the following commands: patch -Np1 -i ../unzip-&unzip-version;-fix_Makefile-1.patch && patch -Np1 -i ../unzip-&unzip-version;-fix_libz-1.patch && patch -Np1 -i ../unzip-&unzip-version;-dont_make_noise-1.patch && cp -v unix/Makefile . && make prefix=/usr LOCAL_UNZIP=-DUSE_UNSHRINK linux && make prefix=/usr LOCAL_UNZIP=-DUSE_UNSHRINK linux_shlibz To test the results, issue: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD make check. Now, as the root user: make prefix=/usr LOCAL_UNZIP=-DUSE_UNSHRINK install && cp -v -d libunzip.so* /usr/lib Command Explanations make prefix=/usr LOCAL_UNZIP=-DUSE_UNSHRINK linux: This command overrides the prefix variable that is set to /usr/local in the Makefile, sets the LOCAL_UNZIP environment variable to instruct UnZip to use the shrinking algorithm based on the LZW compression algorithm, and builds the executables for a Linux system. The alternatives to 'linux' can be seen with a make list command. make ... linux_shlibz: Build shared libunzip and link UnZip against it and zlib. Contents Installed Programs Installed Library Installed Directories funzip, unzip, unzipfsx, zipgrep, and zipinfo libunzip.so None Short Descriptions funzip allows the output of unzip commands to be redirected. funzip unzip lists, tests or extracts files from a ZIP archive. unzip unzipfsx is a self-extracting stub that can be prepended to a ZIP archive. Files in this format allow the recipient to decompress the archive without installing UnZip. unzipfsx zipgrep searches files in a ZIP archive for lines matching a pattern. zipgrep zipinfo produces technical information about the files in a ZIP archive, including file access permissions, encryption status, type of compression, etc. zipinfo libunzip.so contains the API functions required by the UnZip programs. libunzip.so
