using pbzip2 or pigz when building packages
merge 513742 517249
thanks
Hi,
I'm currently regularly building kernels on a 24core machine which is really
nice as it's fast but then it's not as fast as it could be as most of the time
is spent tar'ing and zip'ing the resulting debian packages.
So I would like to use pbzip2 or pigz to make use of all the cores for this
too. But this doesnt seem to be straightforward. #517249 would be one way to
achieve this, another would be make dpkg-source use it directly. I'd prefer
the latter.
Any other approaches I'm missing?
cheers,
Holger
