+ "Libarchive provides a flexible interface for reading and writing
+archives in various formats such as tar and cpio. Libarchive also supports
+reading and writing archives compressed using various compression filters such
+as gzip and bzip2. The library is inherently stream-oriented; readers
+serially iterate through the archive, writers serially add things to the
+archive. In particular, note that there is currently no built-in support for
+random access nor for in-place modification.")
