Description A. Person 2012-07-04 07:13:28 UTC

Would it be appropriate to add a gzip USE flag for google-api-adwords-perl-2.6.1?

"The library supports gzip compression in the transport layer by default. Based
in the LWP:UserAgent module, the compression is detected by checking the
contents of HTTP::Message::decodable.

If gzip does not appear as the encodings supported in HTTP::Message::decodable,
you need to make sure the Compress::Zlib module is installed."

http://google-api-adwords-perl.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/README

I don't know very much about perl but maybe Compress::Zlib is included as part of IO-Compress which is part of perl-core so this isn't necessary?

Afaik this should be available by default. Anyway there's been a lot of new versions in the meantime.
