Description Matthias Clasen 2013-05-15 02:17:36 UTC
The glusterfs package includes a 6M ChangeLog file that dwarfs the rest of the package. I would suggest to trim this to a reasonable size.

Comment 1 Kaleb KEITHLEY 2013-06-20 13:18:55 UTC
fixed in 3.4.0betaX and in the forthcoming 3.3.2.

Comment 2 Kalev Lember 2013-06-23 17:10:51 UTC
I see that instead of the 6M ChangeLog, glusterfs now ships a 1M compressed ChangeLog.bz2. This actually makes it hurt even more than shipping an uncompressed 6M ChangeLog: The iso media and rpm use xz compression, but when a file is already bz2 compressed, xz doesn't manage to compress it any further.

Would it be possible to just drop the ChangeLog.bz2, or trim it like mclasen suggests?

Comment 3 Joe Julian 2013-06-23 19:31:39 UTC
Maybe we should just put the url to the git log in there?

Comment 4 Kalev Lember 2013-06-23 20:47:29 UTC
Sure, sounds good to me.

Comment 5 Niels de Vos 2013-06-27 11:48:02 UTC
The plan is to trim the ChangeLog to the most recent 50 lines and include a link to a git-tag'd commit log like
