Bug#756248: systemd: reportbug config creates extremely large mails and sends this info wihtout asking

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

reopen 756248
stop

Hey.

Thanks for implementing what you've already did, but reopening this for
now for the following question:

When people chose to submit the debug information, these mails still get
pretty bug (just tried, and on my system a fresh empty report, get's
more than half a MB).

Is there anything that speaks against compressing the files before
attaching them?
If you don't like xz because it's not essential and you don't want to
depend on it, then taking gzip would still be better than not
compressing at all. :)

Feel free to close again, if you reject the idea of compressing, but
perhaps explain why.


Cheers,
Chris.
