--- addendum --- The xpi size seems (to me) to be related with the way used to compress the jar files... The script seems to use a zip compression (I do not know which level of compression). I used the Java OpenJDK jar command (zip/bzip - again I do not know which level of compression) to unpack/pack the jar file. Regards al3xu5 / dotcommon -- Support free software!
