Description mehrunes 2009-08-13 16:19:38 UTC

i am submitting two ebuilds: for dev-libs/quicklz and app-arch/tamp

tamp is a multi-threaded file compressor built on top of quicklz, the fastest
open-source file compressor i am aware of, produces files slightly larger than
lzop, compresses data many times faster than lzop

funny thing: there is qpress-037-source.zip (containig quicklz software) in distfiles mirror i'm using, but
i can't find the corresponding ebuild

i set KEYWORDS to *, though i only tested tamp on amd_64 architecture

in no way i am connected to the creators quicklz and tamp software

imho tamp software is the fastest of its kind and mature enough to be
part of gentoo


Reproducible: Always

You may wish to add this ebuild and tamp to the sunrise overlay where you could maintain it yourself :)
