Hi,
I'm about to package dtrx <https://brettcsmith.org/2007/dtrx/>, a script
to intelligently extract multiple archive types. The script determines
the archive format and calls the respective extraction tool, which it
searches on the $PATH.
1) Should I add all required tools as inputs?
2) Should I use propagated inputs then? The executable are searched on
$PATH.
FYJ: Debian includes all the required inputs, see
<https://packages.debian.org/stretch/dtrx>.
