Hi,
As of Today's latest test grimoire update the tar spell requires a
patch to support lzma-utils:
#default_pre_build &&
cd $SOURCE_DIRECTORY
if is_depends_enabled $SPELL lzma-utils; then
patch -p1 < $SPELL_DIRECTORY/tar_lzma.diff
fi
Looking at the patch itself it looks like it supposes that lzma is not
supported at all by tar, see for example at tar_lzma.diff:
- ct_bzip2
+ ct_bzip2,
+ ct_lzma
};
However after the last test grimoire upgrade, that support seems to be
already included:
buffer.c
----------
enum compress_type {
ct_none,
ct_compress,
ct_gzip,
ct_bzip2,
ct_lzma
};
...
tar.c
------
case LZMA_OPTION:
set_use_compress_program_option ("lzma");
...
Looks like the patch is NO longer required. Actually the patch fails
if applied. So although I have lzma-utils installed, answering NO to
its usage for the tar spell cast is the best option right now.
Is this known already? I see no comments on this yet, neither a bug filed...
Thanks,
