cool! Thanks for proposing the inclusion of these ports into Genode. Coincidentally, I have recently ported libarchive myself. It still resides on a topic branch. The corresponding issue is: https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/issues/2528 My port differs from your's in that it avoids hosting the generated config.h in our git repository. Instead it comes with a tiny hand-crafted version of this file. Please also note the fixup commit on my branch, which adds the untar example. Could you imagine taking this version as the basis for your branch and possibly enhance it with the additional features you need (enabling lz4, lzma)? Regarding the question where to put them, the ports should be added to the official Genode repository - not genode-world - because they will be used by Genode's forthcoming on-target depot-deployment tools (which should not depend on the genode-world repository).
