Depends.

My main concern is that changing the compression algorithm alone optimizes for the wrong case (initial install), which you can do from CD anyway if you are bandwidth-starved. Delta compression for .debs would be far more interesting, I guess, but I have no idea how to implement them in a sane way. 8-/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
