Subject: [PATCH] support to .lzma files
Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2008 17:00:43 -0200
To: bug-Archive-Extract [...] rt.cpan.org, "Jos Boumans" <kane [...] cpan.org>
From: "Adriano Ferreira" <a.r.ferreira [...] gmail.com>
Dear Jos, The attached patch adds support to the uncompression of .lzma files into Archive::Extract. I am working on the complementary patch to support dealing with .tar.lzma files as well. (There is a glitch with Compress::unLZMA which incorrectly deals with empty files returning "undef" rather that an empty string. That's a bug I will try to patch, so that the dependency can depend on the hopefully updated module.) Kind regards, Adriano Ferreira PS. The patch is "archive-extract.patch" and an additional sample file "t/src/x.lzma" (which is an empty file lzma-compressed).

Message body is not shown because sender requested not to inline it.

Download x.lzma
application/octet-stream 18b

Message body not shown because it is not plain text.
