Hi Daniel,

Apparently [1] XZ Utils and Lzip both provide an lzdiff command. The
XZ Utils version is meant for comparing .lzma files, though it also
can compare .xz, .gz, and .bz2 files. From the Lzip manual I gather
that its version compares .lz, .gz, and .bz2 files, but I couldn't
tell whether it handles .lzma files. For now, I'm making xz-utils
conflict with lzip, but I don't think that's a good solution in the
long term.

Can Lzip handle .lzma files? If so, do you think it's worth using
alternatives to manage the lzdiff name? If not, what do you think
should be done (e.g., I could just not ship lzdiff --- its
functionality is in xzdiff, anyway)?

Thanks,
Jonathan
