Zstd-&zstd-version; zstd <para>Zstandard is a real-time compression algorithm, providing high compression ratios. It offers a very wide range of compression / speed trade-offs, while being backed by a very fast decoder.</para> <segmentedlist> <segtitle>&buildtime;</segtitle> <segtitle>&diskspace;</segtitle> <seglistitem> <seg>&zstd-ch6-sbu;</seg> <seg>&zstd-ch6-du;</seg> </seglistitem> </segmentedlist> </sect2> <sect2 role="installation"> <title>Installation of Zstd Compile the package: make This package does not come with a test suite. Install the package: make prefix=/usr install Remove the static library and move the shared library to /lib. Also, the .so file in /usr/lib will need to be recreated: rm -v /usr/lib/libzstd.a mv -v /usr/lib/libzstd.so.* /lib ln -sfv ../../lib/$(readlink /usr/lib/libzstd.so) /usr/lib/libzstd.so Contents of Zstd Installed programs Installed library zstd, zstdcat (link to zstd), zstdgrep, zstdless, zstdmt (link to zstd), and unzstd (link to zstd) libzstd.so Short Descriptions zstd Compresses or decompresses files using the ZSTD format zstd zstdgrep Runs grep on ZSTD compressed files zstdgrep zstdless Runs less on ZSTD compressed files zstdless libzstd The library implementing lossless data compression, using the ZSTD algorithm libzstd
