Hi!

This source package builds one or more binary packages using the
deprecated compressor bzip2. The default has been xz for a while now
which should usually compress better than bzip2. If instead you'd like
speed then switch to use gzip.

Using a deprecated compressor when building binary packages will
become an error in the near future. Please update the packages.

See also <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2016/07/msg00113.html>.

Thanks,
Guillem

This one appears to be a false positive:

jona@lupin:/tmp$ for a in $(ls libevent-*.deb); do ar t $a | grep data.tar;
done
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.gz
data.tar.gz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
data.tar.xz
