 tom | gnutar takes like 5m40 for me ^^ CPU is a i7-13700K | 12:20:49 |

⏵ gnutar-1.35 on 1cd ⏱ 8m4s (∅ 11m22s)
| 12:21:09 |
| hexa | upstream only has a mailing list 🥲 | 12:22:02 |
 K900 | Of course they do | 12:22:37 |
| tom | they also have https://bugs.astron.com/ | 12:23:19 |
| tom | whatever that is | 12:23:26 |
| hexa | ohhh mantis | 12:23:29 |
| hexa | I like | 12:23:34 |
| hexa | looks very different than I remember it | 12:25:49 |
| hexa | from 15-20 years ago 🫣 | 12:25:56 |
| tom | that's a long a time ago :) never heard of it before | 12:31:10 |
| * K900 crumbles into dust | 12:34:23 |
| hexa | https://bugs.astron.com/view.php?id=785 | 12:35:46 |
| hexa | now if only the bug tracker was public | 12:36:00 |
| tom | thank you! | 12:36:20 |
| hexa | thanks for testing this with me :D | 12:36:58 |
 Vladimír Čunát | How bad a bug is this? | 12:41:59 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Only --uncompress is broken? | 12:43:30 |
| Vladimír Čunát | And not all sub-cases of that, apparently. | 12:45:13 |
| hexa | breaks python3.pkgs.patool | 12:47:25 |
| tom | i think so, it least the only code paths to posix_spawn_* calls are in uncompressbuf | 12:47:32 |
| hexa | and yeah, it need to spawn a helper | 12:47:39 |
| hexa | which doesn't happen for gzip or zstd | 12:47:47 |
| tom | that's also how i stumbled on it, haven't seen it anywhere else yet | 12:47:58 |

| 12:48:32 |
| hexa | and more uncommon formats, like xz | 12:49:15 |
| hexa | I mean, who uses that? /hj | 12:49:24 |
 emily | great cycle | 12:51:07 |
| hexa | yeah, so much velocity wasted. it's honestly great! | 12:51:30 |
| K900 | I mean it's nice that we can actually scrap the cycle | 12:51:53 |
