Moin Santiago!

No, I#ve suggested to compress only know file types instead of compressing  
everything.

debstd compresses a lot of file types found in HTML documentation and this  
is really bad.

SV> I'm in doubt about this change.

Why? The policy doesn#t say anything about the file types in /usr/doc.

And remember, my db file is a text but not a binary file! And the policy  
doesn#t say anything about the name of the files in /usr/doc.
