[Bug 2055422] Re: Please sync xz-utils 5.6.0-0.2 from Debian experimental

[Adrien Nader]

Graham pointed out that the upload was actually to unstable and
therefore autosync'ed already!

I'm going to keep the bug open until it migrates due to the possibility
of some testsuite failures.

Title:
  Please sync xz-utils 5.6.0-0.2 from Debian experimental

Status in xz-utils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Xz-utils 5.6.0 was released last Friday. It features a much faster
  decompression code on all platforms but on x86_64 in particular, it is
  60% faster in my testing. It also aligns better current practices of
  enabling multi-threading by default (always with a default memory
  limit of 25% of the system physical memory).

  Sebastian Andrzej Siewior has uploaded it to experimental and after a
  few fixes for integration (due to extra output on stderr in
  particular), has uploaded xz-utils 5.6.0-0.2.

  I expect tests to pass now considering they almost all succeeded with the first upload.
  I am aware of tweaks to other packages too but I'm not sure they will actually be needed with this new upload and since they relate to pristine-tar and/or dpkg, I think it's probably better to be sure first due to the ongoing migrations.

  Thanks.
