[Aptitude-devel] Bug#687294: aptitude: Please use xz compression for all binaries

[Cyril Brulebois]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.8.1-1
Severity: important
Tags: d-i patch

Hi,

we're trying to make some room on CD#1, and both aptitude{,-common} are
good candidates. Applying the attached patch, one gets the following
savings (on amd64, in MB):
 - aptitude: 1.9 → 1.4
 - aptitude-common: 2.6 → 1.5

Thanks for considering.

Mraw,
KiBi.
