--- Begin Message ---Package: pbzip2 Version: 1.0.2-0 Severity: normal Hi, I think pbzip2's behavior of refusing to compress zero-size files is surprising and wrong. Also it's not documented. bzip2 in general is used in quite a lot of automated settings where you just expect to end up with a .bz2 file. Although pbzip2 is not quite a drop-in replacement yet (for example it doesn't work as a filter like bzip2 and gzip), I still think the least surprising thing to do with zero-size files would be to compress them like bzip2.
