Comments regarding laszip_2.2.0-1_amd64.changes

Hi Martin,

Don't upload laszip to UbuntuGIS or any other PPA, due to the FastAC
code not allowing modification the laszip package is unredistributable
because it violets the terms of the LGPL.

If you want to support LAZ in PDAL for GRASS getting laz-perf packages
is a much better option:
