Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] rules/kernel: switch to xz compression
Date: Fri,  6 Apr 2012 12:55:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1333709729-67003-1-git-send-email-andreas@biessmann.de> (raw)

kernel is provided since 2.6.0 with xz compression. The main aim to use xz
compression here is to save significant space for local mirrors.

linux-3.3.tar.bz2 is about 75 MiB
linux-3.3.tar.xz is about 63 MiB
 -> saves about 15 %
