Food for thought for the underconvinced. I took my current router disk
image, copied all the .lrp files to a temp directory and renamed them to
.tgz, then gunzip'd them and recompressed them with bzip2.

bootbeep.tgz  etc.tgz    log.tgz      oidentd.tgz  root.tgz  weblet.tgz
dnscache.tgz  local.tgz  modules.tgz  psentry.tgz  sshd.tgz

wolfstar@ragnar:~/lrp/temp > du
1180    .

bootbeep.tar.bz2  etc.tar.bz2    log.tar.bz2      oidentd.tar.bz2
root.tar.bz2  weblet.tar.bz2 dnscache.tar.bz2  local.tar.bz2
modules.tar.bz2  psentry.tar.bz2  sshd.tar.bz2

wolfstar@ragnar:~/lrp/temp > du
1076    .

Nice. Extra 104K of space. I will note though, that when I tried it out
with a single package - I used David's Oxygen package usr.lrp - the gzip
size came out as 4K larger for some strange reason.

Either way, can anyone here think of what one could do with an extra 104K
of disk space? =)
