Bug#953632: ITP: liblzf -- A very small data compression library



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Timo Röhling <timo@gaussglocke.de>

* Package name    : liblzf
  Version         : 3.6
  Upstream Author : Marc Alexander Lehmann <schmorp@schmorp.de>
* URL             : http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/liblzf.html
* License         : BSD-2-clause
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : A very small data compression library

This library implements a very, very fast compression library written
in C that implements the LZF algorithm. Compression ratios are moderate
with 40 to 50 percent for typical binary data, but decompression speed
is basically at unoptimized memcpy speed.

The library is a dependency for the Open3D library (see ITP bug #892805),
which I intend to adopt, but I've noticed on sources.debian.org that it
is embedded in quite a few other packages.
