I think this (the word 'only') is the point we disagree about. Are you
going to document it so that "User should not upgrade from Jessie to
Stretch before finishing current games of Freeciv." (or at least to
load latest save in Jessie, switch compresstype, and save it again).
 If you want to take quicker route to obsoleting .bz2 than upstream, I
would recommend patching so that .xz will be the default compression
format for new savegames now on -> users upgrading from Stretch to
Stretch+1 won't be affected if Stretch+1 drops .bz2 support. I'm going
to submit such a patch to upstream patch tracker in near future, which
you could just backport.
