I am pleased to announce the release of GNU ddrescue 1.15. GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ddrescue/ http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/ddrescue/ or from your favorite GNU mirror. This version is also available in lzip format. If your distro doesn't yet distribute the lzip program, you can download it from http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html The md5sums are: 6b445f6246074a7fa02f3b2599031096 ddrescue-1.15.tar.gz c0566c2648c3738390a8dda2f37a9824 ddrescue-1.15.tar.lz This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending ".sig" to the URL. Changes in version 1.15: * The new option "-a, --min-read-rate" has been added. * The new option "-I, --verify-input-size" has been added. * The new option "-x, --extend-outfile" has been added. * Ddrescue now verifies that infile, outfile and logfile are all different. * Non-tried blocks are now read aligned to cluster-size sectors. * The "split or skip" algorithm of the split pass has been improved. * A spurious warning about "-D" being ignored in fill mode has been removed. * Ddrescuelog, a tool for manipulation, display, conversion, comparison and testing of ddrescue logfiles, has been added. Please send bug reports and suggestions to bug-ddrescue@gnu.org If you are packaging ddrescue for a distribution, please, try to use the lzipped source tarball, as this can improve the support for the lzip format in packaging systems. Thanks. Regards, Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
