According to bug #678914, our version is over 5 years old. It has open bugs (#671742, #671990) and is non-trivial to bump due to being merged into schily-tools (#672060), and apparently nobody is interested in doing that. Given that app-arch/tar is a good enough replacement for almost all uses, I think we should treeclean it.
