OpenBSD is perfectly in the right to leave non-POSIX tools out of the base install. gzip-aware tar isn’t POSIX, either, but it’s been a de facto standard for about a decade now. It’s not just in GNU tar and bsdtar, it’s even in BusyBox and Solaris. So yeah, binaries intended for *all* POSIX platforms should be gzip-compressed tarballs. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
