Description: cpio(1) from FreeBSD, using libarchive
 This package provides an interface similar to cpio(1), but using libarchive as the backend for the archiving and extraction of data.  It can read CPIO, tar, pax, zip, jar, ar, and ISO9660 images and provides similar features to the bsdtar package.  Features include:
 .
  * Automatic format detection. Libarchive automatically detects the compression (none/gzip/bzip2) and format (old tar, ustar, gnutar, pax, cpio, iso9660, zip) when reading archives. It does this for any data source.
 .
  * Pax Interchange Format Support. This is a POSIX/SUSv3 extension to the old "ustar" tar format that adds arbitrary extended attributes to each entry. Does everything that GNU tar format does, only better.
 .
  * Handles file flags, ACLs, arbitrary pathnames, etc. Pax interchange format supports key/value attributes using an easily-extensible technique. Arbitrary pathnames, group names, user names, file sizes are part of the POSIX standard; libarchive extends this with support for file flags, ACLs, and arbitrary device numbers.
 .
  * GNU tar support. Libarchive reads most GNU tar archives. If there is demand, this can be improved further.
