Bug#909712: apt.conf.5: Documentation for Compressor option missing referenced example
Package: apt
Version: 1.7.0~rc2
Severity: normal
The documentation for the Compressor option says:
> Compressor
> This scope defines which compression formats are supported,
> how compression and decompression can be performed if
> support for this format isn't built into apt directly and a
> cost-value indicating how costly it is to compress something
> in this format. As an example the following configuration
> stanza would allow apt to download and uncompress as well as
> create and store files with the low-cost .reversed file
> extension which it will pass to the command rev without
> additional commandline parameters for compression and
> uncompression:
But the example mentioned there does not appear.
