Version 1.14.3

• Fixed a bug introduced in v1.14.0 where non-ASCII characters stopped being accepted in image names and descriptions. This bug only affected UNIX-like systems that use signed char, e.g. x86 Linux systems.

Version 1.14.2

• Fixed an issue where some WIM images written by wimlib weren't accepted by some MS software versions. wimlib-written WIM images containing directory reparse points (e.g. junctions) weren't accepted by some versions of the Windows 8 setup wizard. Also, recent versions of DISM had stopped accepting wimlib-written WIM images containing directories with named data streams.

• Commands passed to wimupdate on standard input are now interpreted as UTF-8 or UTF-16LE (autodetected), just like wimcapture config files and wimextract path list files. Previously, on Windows the Windows code page was used instead of UTF-8, which made it hard to specify non-ASCII file paths in wimupdate commands. The same change also applies to wimcapture source list files.

Version 1.14.1

• Fixed a bug introduced in v1.14.0 where wimlib would crash on older CPUs.

Version 1.14.0

• Removed libxml2 and libcrypto (OpenSSL) as dependencies of wimlib.

• Upgraded the support for mounting WIM images on Linux from fuse2 to fuse3. fuse2 is no longer supported.

• Improved performance on CPUs that have SHA-1 instructions in cases where wimlib wasn't using OpenSSL

• wimupdate now supports the --ref option. It should be specified when updating a delta WIM to avoid two minor issues.

• wimoptimize now has better default behavior when converting to and from solid archives, i.e. WIM <=> ESD. It now is consistent with wimcapture and wimexport. For WIM => ESD, wimoptimize --solid now works. Before, the needed command was wimoptimize --solid --compress=LZMS --chunk-size=128K. For ESD => WIM, wimoptimize --compress=LZX now works. Before, the needed command was wimoptimize --compress=LZX --chunk-size=32K.
