.tb2 archive is un-bzip2ed but not un-tarred. #825

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I have some tar-bzip2 archives created with this:

    tar -jcf "$DEST.tb2" "$SRC"

The resulting "file.tb2", when opened in the unarchiver, is decompressed into a 
tar file. The tar file is not  expanded.

I would expect the unarchiver to expand the tar too creating a folder of normal 
files.

This is probably because of the .tb2 extension. The Unarchiver excepts .tbz2 or 
.tar.bz2. Is .tb2 also used in the wild? If so, I could add it.

That's what I guessed, since .tar.bz2 works as expected. I saw .tb2 is listed 
as a tar extension on wikipedia:
