Hi dpkg team, These patches clean up the libdpkg compression code a bit and make the errors from dpkg-deb on compression errors a little more sane (no more mysterious errors ending with ": Success"). Although they are not strictly necessary for liblzma support, they helped my sanity in preparing it.
This is a separate series because the liblzma support patch series was getting a little long. I imagine these could be reviewed separately. I hope you like them.
