Bug#684139: src:webkit: please use xz compression for binary packages

[Ansgar Burchardt]

Source: webkit
Version: 1.8.1-3.1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Usertags: xz-for-wheezy

Please use xz compression for the binary packages (patch attached).
We are trying to fit a few more packages on the first CDs to get a
usable desktop install with it, see [1] for more details.

I will request a freeze exception once the package is uploaded; please
keep in mind to not include additional changes.

Please note that I could not test the patch as the build failed due to
missing disk space in my build chroot. You can verify that it builds
binaries using xz by looking for the data.tar.xz member in the output of
ar t package.deb. The libwebkitgtk-[13].0-0 binary packages should also
be noticeable smaller.

Regards,
Ansgar
