#52000: Add xz to "base" to allow changing the default compression format to .tar.xz in the future --------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Yes, this is interesting. I also wanted to investigate whether we could use tar/libarchive to do xz compression since it's already included in OS X 10.9 and later. Or we could include and build the libarchive source code. Its BSD license might be preferable to xz's legally ambiguous "public domain". -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52000#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
