39    bool "ar"
40    default n
41    help
42      ar is an archival utility program used to create, modify, and
43      extract contents from archives. An archive is a single file holding
44      a collection of other files in a structure that makes it possible to
45      retrieve the original individual files (called archive members).
46      The original files' contents, mode (permissions), timestamp, owner,
47      and group are preserved in the archive, and can be restored on
48      extraction.
49
50      The stored filename is limited to 15 characters. (for more information
51      see long filename support).
52      ar has 60 bytes of overheads for every stored file.
53
54      This implementation of ar can extract archives, it cannot create or
55      modify them.
56      On an x86 system, the ar applet adds about 1K.
57
58      Unless you have a specific application which requires ar, you should
59      probably say N here.

65    help
66      By default the ar format can only store the first 15 characters
67      of the filename, this option removes that limitation.
68      It supports the GNU ar long filename method which moves multiple long
69      filenames into a the data section of a new ar entry.

81    help
82      bunzip2 is a compression utility using the Burrows-Wheeler block
83      sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression
84      is generally considerably better than that achieved by more
85      conventional LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the
86      performance of the PPM family of statistical compressors.
87
88      Unless you have a specific application which requires bunzip2, you
89      should probably say N here.

109      extract contents from archives.
110      cpio has 110 bytes of overheads for every stored file.
111
112      This implementation of cpio can extract cpio archives created in the
113      "newc" or "crc" format, it cannot create or modify them.

160    help
161      This reduces dpkg-deb to the equivalent of
162      "ar -p <deb> data.tar.gz | tar -zx". However it saves space as none
163      of the extra dpkg-deb, ar or tar options are needed, they are linked
