[arch-dev-public] Moving to pkg.tar.xz officially?

Hi all, some of us already commit xz compressed packages, others don't. We didn't really decide on this yet. So, is there a reason not to recommond every TU and Dev to change PKGEXT to .pkg.tar.xz? We might also want to write a little announcement to inform users about this change. While most of them wont be affected, some would have to adjust their custom scripts. And for those who use netinstall on a 2009.02 or older iso would have to run pacman -Syu once to get a version of libarchive which is able to deal with xz. If wanted I also could add a check to devtools which issues a warning if xz is not used. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
