Hi folks,

The lzma-utils which the lzma tool in karmic is based on, is no longer under development. All the work is now going into xz-utils. xz-utils has also a binary called lzma which will do exactly the same. So I can't understand why ubuntu is not including xz-utils in main, since tar is requiring it for all the xz compressed packages that are all over the internet now.
