is McMilk back from vacation?
Yes, but other things are also important: my work and volunteer firefighting.
@mcmilk hope you enjoyed your trip! If you don't mind, it seems like you’re really not into working on this project, if it feels like a burden why not just archive it or stop working on it altogether?
I've stopped using this fork as it is against common sense to use software with security vulnerabilities. I've reverted to plain 7-Zip, will consider other forks, such as NanaZip.
I still think this is an important project, and it used to be actively maintained. I believe this could be simply resolved by opening the project to trusted committers/contributors that would be willing to commit their patches and build process. Not exactly sure why this is not happening, but that would eliminate the risk of a single and overburdened commiter/owner. @mcmilk Would you please consider ?
I don't have seen any pull request for updating the 7-Zip. Updating some compressing code is fairly easy, thats no problem. But I am as a non Windows user have currently no real need for this project. On my work the older releases are fine currently.
The vulnerability and the fix provided in 24.07 is unrelated for us... (see https://github.com/mcmilk/7-Zip-zstd/issues/384#issuecomment-2501604514). However, the update (in-between to 24.08) need to be integrated.
Here is the update to 24.08:
Branch: 24.08-zstd-1.5.6-br, Tests pass. Binaries: 7-Zip ZS Release binaries.zip Reviews and tests are welcome. A pull request doesn't really makes sense - too many files and changes, no common ancestor before (so artificial merge of mainline starting with 21.03 in a 3-way merge point), etc, but the branch can be compared with this origin using git.
Here is the update to 24.08:
After unzip, installer filename is still 22.01?
After unzip, installer filename is still 22.01?
Indeed. Fixed, links updated.
Nice - I think it should go into the offical relaeses soon as folks here might miss it...
How it looks with the new branch? Any experience?
@mcmilk did you have time for a review or would you like to do it yet? Or shall I merge it as it is?
@sebres - thanks a lot for your work on this project. I have no time for 7-Zip ZS currently. If you want, you can merge it as it is.
The branch 24.08 works fine for me, I have been using that release for about a week for no problems. Does it make sense to update LZ4 to 1.10.0 and Brotli to 1.1.0 as well ?
I don't seem to have seen any formats supported by v22 here, is this intentional?

What exactly do you miss here? Note the difference between single file and folder (you seem to try to archive a folder, what allows only container formats: 7z, tar, wim, zip with exactly that listed compression methods). Regardless new version or v.22. If you would try to archive single file, you'd get more formats:
If you have some formats as plugins, they need to be updated to newer version.
