Why is the Solaris 9 patch an .xdelta.tar.bz2?

Shouldn't it be a .tar.xdelta? (also xdelta is already gzip compressed)

    Because it's archived with tar and then compressed with bzip2.

    It's not a Solaris 9 patch. It's a collection of source code
    patches for KOffice 1.3.3, generated by xdelta. The archive
    happens to be in the Solaris 9 tree because it was generated
    off the Solaris 9 build with SunOne Studio 9 (a.k.a. Forte 9).
    It applies just as well to Solaris 8, and/or to SunOne Studio 8.

    > Shouldn't it be a .tar.xdelta?

    Have you run bunzip2 and then tar xvf on it ? That will answer all
    your questions.

      Thanks for the info. I'm actually trying out xdelta at the moment so I was curious about the naming.

      I don't actually have Solaris :)

        IMHO xdelta is a very well done diff/patch tool.

        > I don't actually have Solaris :)

        That's ok. :-) Some of the patches are Solaris specific, but many of them
        are generic.
