tar(1) has been able to extract .zip files for quite a while now. Is it
time to deprecated USE_UNZIP knob?
The ports, that use it without also altering
EXTRACT_{BEFORE|AFTER}_ARGS, can, probably, be in the first wave --
simply removing the knob from them should do the trick...
For the rest, portlint can be taught to warn about it...
Or do we still support OS-releases, where tar was not so advanced? Thanks,
-mi
