[cobalt-developers] Odd package format

["Gavin Nelmes-Crocker" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

Is it me on a Sunday or has something odd been done to the Qube system pkg's
normally you can open them up with tar xvfz [name of package]
now when I try it tells me its not a  gzip archive, but its not a tar
archive either.

Is it me or has anyone else found the same and found the answer - when I do
the same command to open say a pkgmaster pkg no problem and in the same
sense no problem when I create a pkg with tar cvfz packagename.pkg *.  The
really odd thing is the pkg will install as normal so it doesn't appear to
be corrupted.

Any ideas willingly received

I only want to take a look see at how dependencies are done

Regards

Gavin
