 * FWIW, I didn't put lzo in "archivers", but under "devel". I'll port the
 * real compresor (lzop), when I find some fix for the shared libraries.

Um, devel is one of the other category that's abused. :< Just because
it's a library doesn't mean it should go into devel -- if it has a
clearly defined function, it should go to that category instead (like
compress).

Maybe we should create a new category "debug" and most most of "devel" 
over?

 * I don't find a need for the new category, somehow I always know where to
 * look for the compression stuff. The real mess is the x11 category :-(.

x11 is beyond rescue....
