#5362: Use XZ for repository metadata compression -------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: elad | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Milestone: | Component: other Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -------------------------+------------------------ See [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=700020 bug #700020] for details.

I was informed that yum and createrepo already support xz compression for metadata, yet in Fedora still use bz2. We should probably switch repositories to use xz as well.

I was told to talk with rel-eng, I hope this is the right place to do so.
