Package: dpkg-repack
Version: 1.21
Severity: wishlist
Hi, Joey.
I'm recently using dpkg-repack a good amount of time and just wanted to
have it use bzip2 compression instead of the usual gzip compression.
Would it be possible for you to incorporate the usage of dpkg-deb with
the -Z option instead of just calling dpkg --build at the end of the
script?
Also, the manpage seems outdated regarding what dpkg-repack reports as
acceptable options, but perhaps this should be filed as another bug?
Anyway, thank you very much, Rogério.
P.S.: If you want any help, please let me know. I can do some trivial QA
work, if you wish.
