gollark: I'm not actually retrieving backups from it right now, so it's "fine".
gollark: This is... worrying, my backup disk's (fscrypt) encrypted bit somehow has correct file contents but mangled filenames.
gollark: Those don't support things like compressing using a shared dictionary, and also have inconsistent support for advanced features.
gollark: There are still cases where it might be useful to read part of an archive. Such as if you have tar-based backups, or you want to read just the metadata out of a package tarball, or you want to just list all the files in a big one.
gollark: Lzip is neat apart from being entirely tied to LZMA, which is now obsoleted by zstandard.
