Description

Hi Bruno,

I discovered pbzip2 recently. (http://compression.ca/pbzip2/)
I think it could be a good enhancement to allow the usage of this tool instead of bzip2.

Best regards.
René

  • status changed from new to assigned.
  • milestone changed from 2.2.9 to 2.2.10.

The call to bzip2 is currently launched in aprallel currently. It may however be more efficient to use the tool you mention. Much easier in 3.x however, but will see.
