--enable-sandbox=METHOD
There is limited sandboxing support in the xz tool. If
built with sandbox support, it's used automatically when
(de)compressing exactly one file to standard output and
the options --files or --files0 weren't used. This is a
common use case, for example, (de)compressing .tar.xz
files via GNU tar. The sandbox is also used for
single-file 'xz --test' or 'xz --list'.
There is limited sandboxing support in the xz and xzdec
tools. If built with sandbox support, xz uses it
automatically when (de)compressing exactly one file to
standard output when the options --files or --files0 aren't
used. This is a common use case, for example,
(de)compressing .tar.xz files via GNU tar. The sandbox is
also used for single-file 'xz --test' or 'xz --list'.
xzdec always uses the sandbox, except when more than one
file are decompressed. In this case it will enable the
sandbox for the last file that is decompressed.
