Unmaintained? #15

Closed milibopp closed 6 years ago

@mitsuhiko is this tool still maintained?

It is a great usability benefit for command-line users, so it would be sad to see it die slowly. I am mainly wondering, as I was thinking about packaging it for NixOS.

I fix it for my own issues only atm.

There are alternatives like unp from Debian, dtrx, atool, unar, and I think I saw one written in go, but can't find it.

@Moredread, thanks for the hint.

As well as aunpack (part of the aforementioned atool) there's also a new version of this tool by the same author written in Rust: unbox.
