decompress didnt got an update since 2017, and i only found one alternative, tar-stream

@nodkz should we switch to that instead of decompress?

[nodkz]

Sure!!!

If somebody can send PR it will be nice! I'm in business trip right now and can do it myself only in the next week!

[hasezoey]

@nodkz i will probably try it, after the logging change got merged to better debug it (#270)

[carnun]

Any chance to get the PR merged in? I see there are some conflict that are still unresolved.

Fixed in 6.4.1
Thanks to @jeroen-plug
