I'm legitimately shocked no one cares about this
probably because you're a while late <_<

actually looking at the specifics of conversations around the dev of this and the pull requests themselves is crazy. like just look at this commit: https://git.tukaani.org/?p=xz.git;a=commitdiff;h=328c52da8a2bbb81307644efdb58db2c422d9ba7

Even knowing there is a change in here with malicious intent, it's hard to see. Even knowing specifically which file it's in (the very first one, CMakeLists.txt) it's still hard to see
THIS IS WHAT I HATE A BOUT EVREY WEBSITE!! THERES SO MUCH PEOPLE READING AND POSTING STUIPED STUFF
