Description

Any ideas on what could cause this? Code:

    let mut f = io::BufReader::new(fs::File::open(archive_path).unwrap());
    let mut tar: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
    lzma_rs::xz_decompress(&mut f, &mut tar).unwrap();

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the LZMA decompression code path that leads to the size mismatch. Check the handling of expected vs actual unpacked size in the xz decoder.
