IIRC this is the first example of a bz2 file that has such trailing garbage. Such problems are prevelant enough in gz files that pristine-gz includes an xdelta that can be used to tack that data back on. I'd be curious to know what generated that bz2 file. Is the trailing garbage created by some legitimate program, or have their just been enough bz2 files released by now that we've gotten one that includes a bit of disk corruption at the end? It should not be very hard to add a xdelta to pristine-bz2, but I don't know when I'd get around to it. In the mean time, I have checked this bz2 file into my testsuite branch. This brings the number of odd bz2 files it cannot reproduce up to 4.. -- see shy jo
