Bug#216740: PAQ8i is the latest version in the suite of archivers

[Drew Scott Daniels <ddaniels@UMAlumni.mb.ca>]

Hi,
I'd actually like the latest version of the PAQ data compression program
to be packaged. See the maximumcompression website or alike (perhaps the
archive comparison test when it gets updated) for a comparison of it to
other archivers.

The newer versions don't seem like they'll be reverse compatible with
old versions, so perhaps one could view this RFP as a request to archive
the entire suite of PAQ data compression programs.

Please also consider other top ranked compression programs especially
since the algorithms and archivers will continue to evolve rapidly 
probably for at least the next few years.

The current "PAQ Data Compression Programs" website is

Thanks,
