Could you please mention which ones do not? And if so, how are they relevant/are they fixable? Because as long as xz debs are opt-in, no significant part of the archive will be compressed well, breaking one-CD installs and putting a good deal of unnecessary strain on mirrors. And we're talking about whooping 1/3 of CD1 being waste. Special-casing base packages would be a lot of complexity, let's avoid that if possible -- but still preferred to letting gzip stay. -- “This is gonna be as easy as cheating on an ethics exam!” -Cerise Brightmoon
