http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/compress/ The problem is that the do not have any releases and unlikely to have in nearest future. When done, remove bundled classes from app-dicts/jalingo and app-benchmarks/bootchart.
In May 2009 there was a 1.0 release.
In August 2010, there 1.1 was released. This thing is bundled by mediathekview (new package, for which I proposed an ebuild -- bug 344859).
Created attachment 281523 [details] ebuild for 1.1 Attached ebuild works without any obvious problems.

commons-compress-1.1 added, should be on your local rsync mirror in a few hours
