Hi, Following an upgrade from Debian Etch to Lenny, I saw that the 'datcompression' switch to 'mt', that I used to set compression on/off, was actually a Debian patch: http://patch-tracker.debian.org/patch/misc/view/cpio/2.6-18.1+etch1/src/mt.c http://patch-tracker.debian.org/patch/misc/view/cpio/2.6-18.1+etch1/doc/mt.1 which was removed from their package at a point: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=566752
Apparently SuSE has a similar issue: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=129866 Looking at submissions of this patch "upstream", I found several references on this list, but no answer: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=datcompression&submit=Search&idxname=bug-cpio What is your (Sergey?) opinion on this patch? -- Sylvain -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
