Thanks. This was fixed upstream: commit b65606177be6210f3f0501e5689cdbb107e0f2f7 Author: Bryn M. Reeves <bmr> Date: Tue Nov 5 16:07:23 2013 +0000 Restore --build command line option Releases of sos prior to 3.0 included the '--build' option to disable creation of a compressed archive and to leave the temporary build tree in place. This was removed with the reorganisation of the archive classes to support in-line archiving. Since all supported policies are now using an archive that derives from FileCacheArchive (commit 0178d5f) the option can be re-introduced. Archive classes that do not accumulate files in a temporary directory will return the path to the in-progress archive file. Signed-off-by: Bryn M. Reeves <bmr> I'll update the f20 package to include the post-3.0 changes.
