Incidentally, I made this with `zip -n .st:.xml NoCandyPresource.star *.st *.xml COPYING', and I propose that all packages be made like this by default (regardless of whether they contain a COPYING).
Doing this would only be beneficial if it means not requiring unzip. You would have to modify kernel/VFS.st to provide, instead of #uzip, a special file system used to load STAR files -- one that would only support stored files. Once this is done, I'm ok with adding the -n option. I had considered it but, since there is a requirement for unzip anyway so far, I chose not to.
Thanks for trying this out! Paolo
