Description

i just download "eBox 1.4-2 VirtualBox? disk image" and found out that this image is archived in zip file.

when i re-package using xz format it save much disk space (original file: 611.6 MB, re-package file: 514.3MB)

i guest if you re-package disk image using xz format, it will help someone like me to download it faster since internet connection in my country is not to fast

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to wontfix

Thanks for the suggestion, but we think zip is a more popular format for most of the users (specially among the Windows one) so we are not sure if a change such that would be convenient...
