Package: cdbs Version: 0.4.116 Tags: patch I prepared a patch to switch gnome.mk to use xz compression by default, see [1]. I tried rebuilding gnome-keyring with it and the binary packages included data.tar.xz as expected.
Please consider applying it for wheezy. Ansgar [1] <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/08/msg00027.html>
