atool for Debian
-----------------
Unrar:
The /etc/atool.conf provided by debian set an option for using rar instead
of using unrar (use_rar_for_unpack). This is because upstream atool can
use another unrar software, which is packaged in debian as unrar-nonfree
(in section non-free), but not unrar (in section main). (unrar in main does
only support v2 rar-format, unrar-nonfree supports v3).
If you really want to use unrar-nonfree, please deactivate this option in
/etc/atool.conf. Be aware, ___ this will break ___ rar archives support
if you install unrar instead of unrar-nonfree.

Multi-core CPUs:
If you using a machine with more than one CPU core, you should install the
pbzip2 (Parallel bzip2) package to speed up bzip2 compression/decompression.
To enable support for this program in atool, you will need to add the
following to your ~/.atoolrc:
use_pbzip2 1
use_tar_bzip2_option 0
Alternatively, you could install the lbzip2 package and set the following
in your ~/.atoolrc:
path_bzip2 lbzip2
