  27. bool "ar"
  28. default n
  29. help
  30. ar is an archival utility program used to create, modify, and
  31. extract contents from archives. An archive is a single file holding
  32. a collection of other files in a structure that makes it possible to
  33. retrieve the original individual files (called archive members).
  34. The original files' contents, mode (permissions), timestamp, owner,
  35. and group are preserved in the archive, and can be restored on
  36. extraction.
  37. The stored filename is limited to 15 characters. (for more information
  38. see long filename support).
  39. ar has 60 bytes of overheads for every stored file.
  40. This implementation of ar can extract archives, it cannot create or
  41. modify them.
  42. On an x86 system, the ar applet adds about 1K.
  43. Unless you have a specific application which requires ar, you should
  44. probably say N here.

  53. filenames into a the data section of a new ar entry.

  57. help
  58. bunzip2 is a compression utility using the Burrows-Wheeler block
  59. sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression
  60. is generally considerably better than that achieved by more
  61. conventional LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the
  62. performance of the PPM family of statistical compressors.

  84. "newc" or "crc" format, it cannot create or modify them.

  124. "ar -p <deb> data.tar.gz | tar -zx". However it saves space as none
  125. of the extra dpkg-deb, ar or tar options are needed, they are linked
  126. to internally.
