Package: kgb
Version: 1.0b4-5
Severity: normal
Comparing some compressors:
% ls -log hda1*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 2317178880 Mar 27 00:10 hda1.tar
-rwxr-xr-x 1 978854423 Mar 27 00:45 hda1.tar.bz2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 1044106128 Mar 25 19:06 hda1.tar.gz
-rwxr-xr-x 1 774386059 Mar 27 00:10 hda1.tar.rz
But...
% kgb hda1.tar.kgb hda1.tar ; echo $?
Nothing to compress, archive won't be created.

'kgb' will compress those 1G archives without complaint, maybe the
problem is the size. Apparently 1G works, but 2.3G doesn't; I
haven't tested to find out the limit.
(If it matters, the disk had 2.65G free, and 'rzip' was able to
compress the same 'hda1.tar'.)
Seems the bug is either:
1) 'kgb' should be able to compress 2.3G files.
2) OR the error message should better explain why it can't.
Hope this helps...
