(The encoder only supports up to 1536 MiB.) - Fixed two cases of invalid free() that can happen if a tiny allocation fails in encoder re-initialization or in lzma_filters_update(). These bugs had some similarities with the bug fixed in 5.2.7. - Fixed lzma_block_encoder() not allowing the use of LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH with lzma_code() even though it was documented to be supported. The sync-flush code in the Block encoder was already used internally via lzma_stream_encoder(), so this was just a missing flag in the lzma_block_encoder() API function. - GNU/Linux only: Don't put symbol versions into static liblzma as it breaks things in some cases (and even if it didn't break anything, symbol versions in static libraries are useless anyway). The downside of the fix is that if the configure options --with-pic or --without-pic are used then it's not possible to build both shared and static liblzma at the same time on GNU/Linux anymore; with those options --disable-static or --disable-shared must be used too. * New email address for bug reports is <xz@tukaani.org> which forwards messages to Lasse Collin and Jia Tan.

Copyright
As LibreELEC includes code from many upstream projects it has many copyright owners; notably OpenELEC which we forked from after disagreeing with project direction and management, and OpenBricks/GeeXboX the uncredited source of the original 2009 build system. LibreELEC makes no claim of copyright on any upstream code. However all original LibreELEC authored code is copyright LibreELEC.tv. Patches to upstream code have the same license as the upstream project unless specified otherwise. For a complete copyright list please checkout the source code to examine license headers. Unless expressly stated otherwise all code submitted to the LibreELEC project (in any form) is licensed under GPLv2 and copyright is donated to the project. This approach gives the project freedom to maintain the code without the overhead of preserving contact with every submitter, e.g. GPLv3. You are free to retain copyright by adding your copyright header to each submitted code page. If you submit code that is not your own work it is your responsibility to place a header stating the copyright.
