Hello,
while trying to figure out which packages could benefit from switching
to xz, vim-runtime appeared. Looking at the packages on CD1, the sizes
for switching everyone to xz would be:
972K vim_7.3.547-4_amd64.deb
824K vim_7.3.547-4.1_amd64.deb
164K vim-common_7.3.547-4_amd64.deb
160K vim-common_7.3.547-4.1_amd64.deb
6.1M vim-runtime_7.3.547-4_all.deb
4.4M vim-runtime_7.3.547-4.1_all.deb
404K vim-tiny_7.3.547-4_amd64.deb
348K vim-tiny_7.3.547-4.1_amd64.deb
(vim-runtime is already bzip2-compressed, but xz is much better.)
Thanks for considering.
Mraw,
KiBi.
