- *.tar.lzma) - check_prog_req lzma - unpack_cmd="tar --lzma -xf" + *.tar.lzma|*.tar.xz) + check_prog_req xz + unpack_cmd="tar --xz -xf" Not yet, because I'm not sure that GNU tar supports --xz yet. You could use '--use-compress-program=xz" though. xz is be able to auto-detect the format of the compressed file (.lzma or .xz) when decompressing. However, to compress to .lzma, you need to specify explicitly that you want the lzma format (xz format is the default). There are two ways to do this: xz --format=lzma ... other args ... or use the lzma symlink lzma ... other args ... (Just in case you wanted to change the output tarball format...which you can't yet, because setup.exe hasn't been taught about .xz. I plan to do that soonish, with an ITP mingw-liblzma...) -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
