[Pkg-fonts-devel] [idea]: please consider to compress your package with xz

That's like 40% reduction in size so I would say "definitely yes".


Of course, as Fabian pointed, this is not enough to motivate a
dedicated upload so I'd just recommend you make the change in SVN and
wait for another opportunity later on.
