| # Packaging for Bazel |
| |
| ## Deprecated |
| |
| These rules have been extracted from the Bazel sources and are now available at |
| [bazelbuild/rules_pkg](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg/releases) |
| [(docs)](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg/tree/main/pkg). |
| |
| Issues and PRs against the built-in versions of these rules will no longer be |
| addressed. This page will exist for reference until the code is removed from |
| Bazel. |

| For more information, follow [issue 8857](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/8857) |

| ## Overview |
| |
| `pkg_tar()` is available for building a .tar file without depending |
| on anything besides Bazel. Since this feature is deprecated and will |
| eventually be removed from Bazel, you should migrate to `@rules_pkg`. |
