Description Raphael Kubo da Costa 2010-05-31 20:20:53 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Currently each time we add support for a new compression type (or format) we need to add more clauses to our if's in libarchive plugin's code. This doesn't scale well, and should be replaced by a more proper and automated solution.

Reproducible: Always
