 Replying to [comment:7 pulkomandy]:

Yes, just use zip or tar as everyone is doing since BeOS is available.
 No need to use hpkg for that, the format is not designed for it.

 ZIP fails with `zip error: Out of memory (was adding files to zip file)`,
 TAR don't support attributes. HPKG is only working archiving solution for
 now.
