Created attachment 38566 [details] ebuild for liblzf
Could you please attach a brief description any why this should be added.
As daniel black asked for a brief explanation why this should be added. first of all using suplied lzf program as a part of pipe is nice because of it's speed. using time cat /usr/bin/mplayer | {compressor} | wc -c shows following: gcc: 1965212 bytes in real 0m0.734s bzip2: 1832165 bytes in real 0m2.290s lzf: 2781588 bytes in real 0m0.135s altought there is many other fast compressors around this one has remarkable simple api for programmers - with all of two function-calls , compress and decompress.
wow - gcc compresses fast :-). I'll think about this later.
comments on the ebuild: the LICENSE should be BSD make the header the same as the one from header.txt take out the src_compile function, it's not needed. IUSE is missing put the variables at the top in the same order as skel.ebuild
Miika, did you see Mr_Bones_'s suggestions?
LibLZF is a very small data compression library. It consists of only two .c and two .h files and is very easy to incorporate into your own programs. The compression algorithm is very, very fast, yet still written in portable C. i fail to see why this is related to media-video.
