The -z or --archive Haikuporter options will do just that.

Sounds like a good idea. Open a trac ticket on HaikuPorts for that,
that may require adding some new fields to the .bep files, but would
also ease updates as we'd only need to create a new .bep file for each
new version, rather than a .bep file and the
OptionalPackageDescription file.
