% du -s /usr/share/libgweather
46M     /usr/share/libgweather
% ls /usr/share/libgweather | xargs -i bash -c "gzip -9 <
/usr/share/libgweather/{} > {}"
% du -s .
8,0M    .
tar cjf /tmp/gwea.tb2 /usr/share/libgweather
% du -s /tmp/gwea.tb2
4,4M    /tmp/gwea.tb2

Bootomline:
There are ways to compress libgweather files. Definitely!
As (with the current GNOME installed), libgweather is one of the hugest
packages, it's worthy to compress locations data.
Hint: use libz on the files.
Comment 1 ildar 2008-09-19 12:52:01 MSD 
моё предложение:
в нашей сборке просто пожать все xml > gzip -9 , оставив файлы с прежними именами. Проверка показала, что это не рушит функциональность. Что скажешь?
Comment 2 Alexey Rusakov 2008-09-19 15:44:05 MSD 
Ну если не рушит функциональность, давайте попробуем.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be
available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.

По идее можно закрыть. Если что - переоткроем.
