Description : BCJ(Branch-Call-Jump) filter for python
In data compression, BCJ, short for Branch-Call-Jump, refers to a technique
that improves the compression of machine code of executable binaries by
replacing relative branch addresses with absolute ones. This allows a LZMA
compressor to identify duplicate targets and archive higher compression rate.
This package is required to Debian package py7zr (>= 0.16.0).
I will maintain this package with Debian Python team.
Andreas Tille <andreas@fam-tille.de> will sponsors me for this package.
