From 1d069e45f7c2f6b2982797dd32092b300bacafad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Liu Date: Fri, 7 Sep 2018 11:41:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mkdeb: use compression level 0 This requires calling dpkg-deb directly and pass it -z0. It reduces the time to run the mkdeb script from 14 seconds to 3 seconds on my workstation with SSD, from 87s to 15s on a machine with HDD. The deb file grows from 49M to 58M.
