Lzip for NetBSD



Hello,

I have noticed you recently added the xz package to pkgsrc.se.

Perhaps you may find interesting the similar but much simpler lzip package.
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html

"Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of gzip or bzip2. Lzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip and compresses better than bzip2, which makes it well suited for software distribution and data archiving."


Best regards,
Antonio.
