I've noticed, that my daily backup fails because bzip2, which is in base, doesn't have large file support implemented.
I think, this is an very important feature of bzip2 and should be implemented in the official bzip2.

I've created a PKGBUILD which compiles bzip2 with large files support.

I've added LF support to Arch's bzip2 package. You can remove the bzip2-lf one from the AUR now, if you like.
