it appears that i somehow got "lzma" (which should give similar size benefits) installed in cygwin, by just following the Windows build setup instructions; i wonder whether 7z and lzma are compatible. another question is how much time this would add to the build, as gzip is quite fast; but perhaps tarring is IO-bound on Windows anyway (it seems like everything is on that platform...) so maybe it's not a problem; google finds parallel implementations of lzma also if that should be a problem... _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
