Re: [libreoffice-website] [Bug 56504] New: deb archives should use lzma compression as OpenOffice.org does

What is wrong with the current compression type for the ".deb" 
archive/install files?
The current system works well, so why change it?  Actually the current 
compression system seems to be a "standard" for many DEB compressed 
installs for .deb packages.
