Eugene, I'd prefer a new bug that way we have distinct threads from both times it was reworked. I defer to Andy on his personal preference, but I suspect he will say much the same. As an aside, my main reason for saying this is the fact that it will be reworked based on a different kernel

@Ahron I think this question would be best asked somewhere like https://answers.launchpad.net/ However I'll note that I don't think that compcache-0.6 is packaged as a deb anywhere, although it is trivial to install from the .tar.gz. I'd suggest submitting a bug requesting that compcache

Note there is now a improved version of Compcache available, better than compcache-0.3 in terms of space efficiency, speed and also has lot of cleanups. However this new version of compcache is a kernel patch rather than a module. See: http://code.google.com/p/compcache/ -- Add compcache

I changed my packaging (linked above) to use debconf for the cache size setting instead of a config file in /etc/default. I reckon the installer would just need to preseed compcache-utils/cache- size to a value such as ‘100 %’ to use something else than the compcache module’s default (25 % of the
