Package: debian-reference
Version: 2.50
Severity: normal
from dpkg 1.17.0, xz compression is used.
* Switch dpkg-deb default compressor from gzip to xz. Build dpkg.deb using
gzip to make debootstrap life easier on non-Debian based systems.
This explains why the package size of some packages changed for jessie.
