But that proves my point: don't rely on undocumented behaviour. Different implementation might implement the undocumented bits differently.
Yes, I simply vote for "Please don't change the default implementation".
The only thing that's documented (besides the file format) is, that compressing and then decompressing yields the same file. Not the other way round.
We are talking about "changing the implementation _per_default_" not about the protocol or implementation itself. "The admin is probably to stupid to use pigz instead of gzip" - give him pigz per default - we know better as him - usually all people want it fast and colored. If he is not as stupid as we think then he could switch back. I don't like that argumentation. Keep the smart admin as he is and give the stupid one the possibility to get smarter. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
