lrzuntar: Delete the compressed file after decompression.
$ lrzuntar -D ${path-to-archive-tar-lrz}
try on your machine

The command "lrzuntar -D ${path-to-archive-tar-lrz}" is used to extract files from a compressed tar archive that has been compressed using the lrzip algorithm.

Here is the breakdown of the command:

  • "lrzuntar": This is the name of the command to extract files from a lrzip-compressed tar archive. It specifically works with .tar.lrz files.

  • "-D": This is an optional flag that specifies the destination directory where the extracted files will be placed. The flag is followed by the desired destination directory path.

  • "${path-to-archive-tar-lrz}": This is the placeholder for the actual path to the compressed tar archive (.tar.lrz file) you want to extract. This needs to be replaced with the actual path to the archive when executing the command.
