The Bzip2Path option lets you override the default path for the bzip2

tool. This allows you to specify an alternate location to your bzip2
executable,
pass optional command-line options, or use a drop-in replacement like pbzip2

+speaking, Fink uses the value of this option in MAKEFLAGS=-j). Running
+.Cm fink configure
