[openFATE 305622] Add support for lzop compression to GNU tar
Feature changed by: Matthias Eckermann (mge1512) Feature #305622, revision 11 Title: Add support for lzop compression to GNU tar openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Matthias Eckermann (mge1512) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: (iaW) update to tar 1.21 + Use Case: + 'tar' is one of the most important archiving tools for Linux and Unix- + like systems in general. Our version should be capable of interacting + with all other versions including the respective compression algorithms + and tools. Discussion: #1: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2009-01-19 09:32:51) tar --use=lzop -cf foo.tar.lzop #2: roland kletzing (rkletzin) (2009-01-20 21:44:53) shouldn`t we first have lzop package being part of the distro/factory, before make standard tools using it? (also see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461228) it`s on the wishlist for a long time now, glad to see that we have openFate now (since adding to the wishlist was as good as talking to a wall) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305622
