https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680245 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680245#c0 Summary: compress source rpms (.src.rpm) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.5 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: estellnb@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.4; Linux) KHTML/4.4.4 (like Gecko) SUSE Downloading .src.rpms is very slow because the sources are stored uncompressed as cpio inside the rpm package. .src.rpm-s should be tar-ed or tar-bzed because otherwise it is infeasible to operate with .src.rpms which is especially necessary for use with osc.
