Subject: bug#919: distributions in lzma or bz2?
Date: Sun, 7 Sep 2008 13:48:33 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200809071848.m87ImXL08116@f7.net> (raw)
emacs-22.3.tar.gz is 39587396 bytes.
Compressed with lzma, it's 26752360 bytes.
(I didn't check bzip2, presumably it's somewhere in between.)
That could be a lot of download bandwidth saved. How about making it
available both ways, at least for next time? (= install lzma-utils from
http://tukaani.org/lzma/download and add dist-lzma to the automake
options.)
Best,
karl
