Bzip2 crate switches from C to 100% Rust

Today we published bzip2 version 0.6.0 , which uses our rust implementation of the bzip2 algorithm, libbz2-rs-sys , by default. The bzip2 crate is now faster and easier to cross-compile. The libbz2-rs-sys crate can also be built as a C dynamic library, if you have a C project that would benefit from these improvements. Why though? Why bother working on this algorithm from the 90s that sees very little use today? The thing is that many protocols and libraries still need to support bzip2 to be
