Subject: Please support .tar.bz2
Many authors upload .tar.bz2 files, then learn that their files are not indexed and then upload .tar.gz. It's high time that we index .tar.bz2 files. We're only waiting for CPANPLUS support

I've just added basic bzip2 support to Archive::Extract. This means CPANPLUS now transparently support .tbz archives if users install the new version; File successfully copied to '/home/ftp/incoming/Archive-Extract-0.10.tar.gz' I'll make A::E 0.10 a prerequisite for the next release of CPANPLUS, as well as Bundle::CPANPLUS::Dependencies. Hopefully this will do the trick :)
