 Using r1a3-rc-r41594.

 Expander is no longer able to preview or extract *.xz archives, *.zip
 archives can be extracted. Used to work with r1a3-rc-r41552.

 My guess: One of the OptionalPackages changed for Alpha 3 (rc r41594) is
 tar. "tar" is now stored in /boot/common/bin/bin (current alpha3) instead
 of /boot/common/bin (pre-alpha3) and thus not found by expander. When
 moving tar to /boot/common/bin everything works again.

 This should be changed for alpha 3.
