Hi, I'd like to finalize the move of pkgutils to libarchive, and make another pkgutils release soonish. * libarchive's 2.0 branch has been stable since ~February * it works well for me * libarchive is very well maintained: bugs/patches get fixed/included immediately (I found one minor bug in libarchive last week). * there's no notable difference in size of pkgadd or in terms of speed of pkgadd * adding support for bzip2'ed packages is trivial and just requires a one line diff in pkgmk (just in case we want to offer that feature) The main reason I send this mail is to ask for any last minute objections to this. I remember Simone had some doubts about the performance, but I don't see any problems wrt to that. Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
