    v44 v45  
    2121  * Safe mode/recovery options:
    2222    - Disable home and common.
    23     - Boot into old system state.
    2423
    2524=== Package/package repository format ===
    … …  
    2726  * Add support for repository keys (public/private) and package signing/check sums, so that it is possible to verify that data retrieved from a repository have not been tampered with.
    2827  * Add package sizes to repository. Since there are plans to support xz (or other high-ratio formats) compressed uncompressed packages for download that are recompressed for installation, we probably need to discriminate between download and installation sizes.
     28  * Add support for a faster compression format (e.g. [https://code.google.com/p/lz4/ lz4]). As it turns out, the currently used zlib compression is rather slow (slower than reading uncompressed data from a slow HD).
    2929  * Add MIME info for types supported by packaged applications (and sniffer rules?) to the package attributes.
