Description Bernd Wurst 2005-05-30 04:17:19 UTC

The flag "bzip2" is listed for 3 packages not including tar. Either the flag should be global or bzip2 should be listed in use.local.desc for tar also.

I wonder why bzip2 is optional at all. Lots of tarballs in the tree wouldn't be
unpacked without it.

Someone already fixed it.
