By the way, upstream libstore itself supports gzip & bzip2; I have only briefly looked into why tarfs needs to ship its own implementation. Upstream libstore seems to only support store_gunzip and store_bunzip2, which, to quote the docs, "contains a snapshot of the uncompressed contents of the store FROM". The version shipped with tarfs has store_gzip and store_bzip2, seemingly providing both reading and writing support. Any idea why the implementations have not been upstreamed? Sergey
