Severity: normal
When making tarballs without compression (.tar instead of tgz.) then
two options have to be set according to the documentation:
compress=cat
compressarg=
Strangely the compressarg command-line option expects a value so it's
impossible to leave it blank. If I try I get:
Option compressarg requires an argument
>From the docs:
--compressarg=string
Specifies the command line options given to the compress program.
For gzip, that would be --stdout --verbose --best, for lzma or bzip2
--stdout --verbose -7 and for cat, it would be empty. The default
is --stdout --verbose --best.
As a workaround I'm using "--compressarg=-u" as "-u" is a deprecated
option to the "cat" command that does nothing. But I'd prefer to use
"--compressarg=".
Thanks! It's otherwise a great tool.
