Description Tomas Popela 2017-10-03 11:16:26 UTC

Spec URL: https://tpopela.fedorapeople.org/brotli.spec
SRPM URL: https://tpopela.fedorapeople.org/brotli-1.0.1-1.fc27.src.rpm
Description: Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data
using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding
and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best
currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed
with deflate but offers more dense compression.

It is now bundled in webkitgtk4, chromium and probably others as well. Also libsoup will gain support for it soon - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788418
