Source: mysql-5.5 Version: 5.5.24+dfsg-6 Severity: important Tags: patch Usertags: xz-for-wheezy
Please use xz compression for the binary packages (patch attached). We are trying to fit a few more packages on the first CDs to get a usable desktop install with it, see [1] for more details. I will request a freeze exception once the package is uploaded; please keep in mind to not include additional changes. Please note that I did not test the patch. You can verify that it builds binaries using xz by looking for the data.tar.xz member in the output of ar t package.deb. The mysql-server-core-5.5 binary packages should also be noticeable smaller.
