You probably know already by now, but I'm replying to let others know: on Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic), xz is in the xz-utils package. I highly recommend xz over bzip2 or lzma. gzip still has the merit of being much faster in compression and somewhat faster in decompression. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ _______________________________________________ SoaS mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/soas
