Is it desirable for anything in the base system to use data.tar.bz2, though? Relying on this would also require adding bzcat to d-i so that debootstrap-udeb could use it; at the moment busybox doesn't build bunzip2. I haven't tested, but bunzip2 isn't trivial so I expect that the initrd size increase caused by this would be considerable. What packages in the base system are trying to use data.tar.bz2 at the moment? -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
