  Description     : a very small data compression library

 LibLZF is a very small data compression library. It consists of only two .c
 and two .h files and is very easy to incorporate into your own programs. The
 compression algorithm is very, very fast, yet still written in portable C.

I need this for static linking in the muswsusp binaries resume and suspend.
That's why I only intend to provide the a liblzf-dev. The upstream author
also only provides infrastructure for static linking.

Hi,

After some discussion on d-d and with my sponsor, I decided to include
the source of liblzf in the tarball of uswsusp. The rational was:
1) Very small
2) Has alternatives in archive
3) Only building liblzf-dev is weird
4) Don't feel like porting uswsusp to something else

Well, if anyone reading this needs liblzf-dev anyway, I'll be happy to
split it out of uswsusp again; I have the debian/ files for building it
ready.

grts Tim
