Compressing the tarball with xz instead of bzip2 would save about 2 MB, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.devel/181336 and let me know if you'd like me to take care of this for devel. diff --git a/create_tarball_mrpt.sh b/create_tarball_mrpt.sh index 58b0a89..22e7a7b 100644 --- a/create_tarball_mrpt.sh +++ b/create_tarball_mrpt.sh @@ -8 +8 @@ popd -tar cjf mrpt-1.0.1-fedora.tar.bz2 mrpt-1.0.1 +tar cJf mrpt-1.0.1-fedora.tar.xz mrpt-1.0.1 diff --git a/mrpt.spec b/mrpt.spec index 3a98683..bb82453 100644 --- a/mrpt.spec +++ b/mrpt.spec @@ -12 +12 @@ URL: http://www.mrpt.org/ -Source0: %{name}-%{version}-fedora.tar.bz2 +Source0: %{name}-%{version}-fedora.tar.xz
I've got no problems with switching to xz with the patch you posted. You can go ahead and take care of it if you'd like.
Actually, I'm going to have to rebuild MRPT this weekend anyway to address some other bugs, I'll take care of re-compressing the source while I'm at it.
