+smbclient archival improvements
+===============================
+
+Archive creation and extraction support in smbclient has been rewritten
+to use libarchive. This fixes a number of outstanding bugs in Samba's
+previous custom tar implementation and also adds support for the
+extraction of zipped archives.
+smbclient archive support can be enabled or disabled at build time with
+corresponding --with[out]-libarchive configure parameters.
