Hi, for a bug report about a segfault I wanted to attach a huge backtrace (over 3 MB). I've compressed it with xz to a 33kb file. I wrote the bug report with M-x debian-bug as usual and then attached the compressed file with M-x mail-attache-file.
The file showed up uncompressed in the buffer in which I was writing the bug report. I suspected that this is just a convenience view and sent the report. Unfortunately and to my surprise this did not do much else then M-x insert-file and the full 3 MB were sent in plain-text. See https://bugs.debian.org/758713 for the result (must be over 3 MB). Is there any sane way to attach deliberately compressed text files to bug reports written with M-x debian-bug?
