It might sound silly but the probably easiest solution might be to modify namcap to support uncompressed tar archives. Then we can add a simple Bash wrapper script which uncompresses the package and calls namcap with the pure tar.

Looking at the code, there is nothing preventing this right now- we just use a generic tar interface which will support any compression or no compression at all.

For those who want to check their xz packages before the next namcap released I have added the relevant patches to namcap 2.4: https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1-i686.pkg.tar.xz https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz And the PKGBUILD including the patches can be found at https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1.src.tar.gz Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
