I pushed the change below. Thanks.
Happy hacking,
Karl
P.S. I humbly suggest explicitly stating in the man page that no envvars
are read, since that is a departure from the other common compression
programs.

Ok, will adjust, no problem.
Does bzip3 read any envvar? I guess there are no "levels" of compression
with bzip3 (?), but it could still be useful ... --thanks, karl.
Hi Kamila,
Thank you. Maybe it would be in order to also mention dist-bzip3 in the
docs?
Of course. I just forgot to make that change.
But as I was adding items in the doc analogous to bzip2 ... does bzip3

Hi Kamila,
Subject: [bug#73795] [PATCH] Add support for the bzip3 compression tool to
I just pushed this (plus a simple test) for the next automake release.
Thanks again. --best, karl.
Hi Karl,
Thank *you* for the quick response. The AND implies that the package contains
both LGPLv3.0 and
BSD-licensed code (in particular e.g. Rich Felker's getopt shim) - it is not
dual-licensed. However,
for all intents and purposes I hereby grant the GNU Project permission to use

Hi Kamila - thanks much for the patch.
% wc -c *tar*

That is an impressive compression ratio.
LGPLv3-licensed
I searched for bzip3 on
bzip3 (https://github.com/kspalaiologos/bzip3) is a free and open-source
LGPLv3-licensed data
compression utility that excels at compressing text and source code.
Compression ratio tests for the automake distribution tarball:
