The  file-roller suffers from various issues. zip archiving does not
work when it comes to large files. .tar.gz is rather old-fashioned and
not quite so safe (AFAIR). -> AFAIK, Ubuntu presently does not have any
fully working safe built-in archiving tool.

All programs currently available in Ubuntu's repositories seem to rely
on the same packaging libaries, so if there is an error in the one
concerned, you cannot package with this format. Therefore, it seems to
me that it would be very important to have an alternative available
which is independent from the usual libraries.

Will PeaZip ship with Ubuntu 8.10?
