10 The bsdtar program creates and manipulates streaming archive files.
11 It has a number of advantages over previous tar implementations.
15 Allow accessing gzip-compressed archives through
16 <pkg>sys-libs/zlib</pkg>. This only affects libarchive's native
17 support: bsdtar will keep using gunzip as a filter if that's not
18 built-in. It's also needed for supporting extraction of ZIP
22 Allow accessing bzip2-compressed archives through libbz2 (which
23 comes with <pkg>app-arch/bzip2</pkg>). This only affects
24 libarchive's native support: bsdtar will keep using bunzip2 as a
25 filter if that's not built-in.
28 Use <pkg>dev-libs/nettle</pkg> as crypto backend
30 <flag name='e2fsprogs'>
31 Use file flags from <pkg>sys-fs/e2fsprogs</pkg> headers instead of <pkg>virtual/os-headers</pkg> headers
