[issue6296] Native (and default) tarfile support for setup.py sdist in distutils on Windows

[Roumen Petrov]

Roumen Petrov <bugtrack at roumenpetrov.info> added the comment:

Antoine, you may mix container with compression. tar as file container
is suitable for unix like systems. other container like zip-container is
not well designed for unix-like file systems.

I disagree with request. Package distribution is platform dependent.
