Given how little time it took Tim to get libarchive from a simple prototype that supported tar files to a 23k line library that supports dozens of variant archive formats, I suspect that the limitation and the corresponding hack will be temporary. :) And if it is just a small number of ports, it could be set up as an extract dependency in the individual port makefiles, right? It's not as though InfoZIP is going to change a lot in the near future. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
