[...] Now I was wondering: 1) how much effort would it be to patch librpm, libsolv, libzypp, createrepo, OBS and other tools to support .rpm.xz files. Maybe not all of them need a patch - e.g. if libzypp uncompresses files on the user side before passing them on to further processing, then libsolv and librpm dont need any change.
If this is just about making drpms smaller it would be much easier to simply add a new drpm format that uses a compressed header.
