Bug#719356: ITP: libarchive-any-lite-perl -- simple CPAN package extractor



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Florian Schlichting <fschlich@ZEDAT.FU-Berlin.DE>

* Package name    : libarchive-any-lite-perl
  Version         : 0.07
  Upstream Author : Kenichi Ishigaki, <ishigaki@cpan.org>
* URL             : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Archive-Any-Lite/
* License         : GPL-1+, Artistic
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description     : simple CPAN package extractor

Archive::Any::Lite is a fork of Archive::Any by Michael Schwern and
Clint Moore. The main difference is that Archive::Any::Lite works
properly even when you fork(), and may require less memory to extract a
tarball. On the other hand, Archive::Any::Lite isn't pluggable (it only
supports file formats used in the CPAN toolchains), and doesn't check
mime types (at least as of this writing).
