Hello Tim,

it seems to me that it should not be that complicated, as the tar
handling code is mostly encapsulated into a library of its own.

See https://git.busybox.net/busybox/tree/archival/libarchive for
futher reference.

I think we provide means to build busybox as shared library. Iff this ist still 
in there, you could simply link against that.

I'd really more looking at copying code over and use it statically, as I want the package manager to have as little dependencies as possible. Currently, I do a static build of libarchive and link against that.

Of course you have to be aware that we do not guarantee a stable library API. 
But that said, it gets changed seldomly if at all.

That would be no problem, I'm just interested in the cpio/gz bits.

Bye
Tim
