Bug#664600: lintian: udeb support for data.tar.xz

[Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.5
Severity: minor


"""
09:34 < nthykier> phil: Re: udeb compression - I assume it makes http://lintian.debian.org/tags/udeb-uses-non-gzip-data-tarball.html obsolete?
[...]
09:36 < phil> nthykier: Not obsolete.  The legal balls will change from .gz to (.gz|.xz).
09:36 < phil> So there should be a rename.
09:37 < nthykier> okay, so no bz2
09:37 < phil> Aye.
09:37 < jcristau> busybox-udeb already does xz?
09:37 < phil> jcristau: Yeah, and udpkg too.
09:38 < jcristau> k
09:38 < phil> jcristau: unxz that is.
09:38 < jcristau> right
09:38 < phil> jcristau: debhelper will be modified to instruct dpkg-deb to compress udebs with xz.
09:38 < phil> Which means that they will then pick it up upon their next rebuild with the right debhelper version.
