just imagine you have one of the recent smaller boxes say beagle board which have 256MiB of total memory. The required 65MiB is a little more than a forth of it. If you argue that this kind of hardware never runs "this" kind of software so -z9 is sane then the question is when someone hits this problem and cares to report or works around it. The thing is whether the bytes we saved here with -z9 vs -6(e) is worth the problem we might run into. > Thomas Goirand (zigo) Sebastian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
