These relaxed bounds don't impact existing builds as they're all SemVer compatible. Specifying lower bounds allows projects with dependencies that pin these to lower versions do build without version resolution conflicts.

Hi,
I'm considering using zip2 in a project that has a downstream pin to
aes =0.8.3but zip2 requiresaes ^0.8.4.It seems like your current strategy is to periodically bump dependency versions to the latest versions, even for SemVer-compatible releases. Is this a measure to ensure that security-critical bugfixes are always picked up when using recent versions of zip2? If not: Would you be fine with more relaxed version bounds for zip2's dependencies?
In this PR I've added a CI job that tests the project with the lowest-compatible dependency versions (
cargo update -Zminimal-versions), bumped an outdated dev-dependency that breaks builds with minimal versions, and relaxed versions of the project's dependencies where appropriate.Feel free to merge or close 🙃
Thanks!
