Read failed (archive_read_data_block): (-30) while reading large archive by blocks

Download a large archive. Archive used in this example is a .7z archive from StackExchange dataset. It is 10.8Gb compressed and contains only one 55Gb file.

Read the file by blocks:

>>> import libarchive.public as libarchive
>>> with libarchive.file_reader('../dataset/stackoverflow.com-Posts.7z') as archive:
...     for entry in archive:
...         if str(entry) != 'Posts.xml':
...             continue
...         for block in entry.get_blocks():
...             pass
...

It looks to be a libarchive issue, so I resubmitted this bug in their repository https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/913 . I guess this one can be closed
