KIWI - Appliance Builder Next Generation
EL8 fork
By default none of the image formats were stored as compressed
file. The reason behind this was the assumption that some
formats automatically makes use of compression, which is true
but only in their processing and not in their data blocks at
creation time. Storage and handling of the image file itself
becomes cumbersome and therefore we change the default bundle
setup for image formats to be compressed. This means the image
as it gets packed by KIWI needs to be uncompressed before use.
The following image formats are affected by the change in a
call of the result bundler:
kiwi result bundle ...
* qcow2 (.qcow2.xz)
* vdi (.vdi.xz)
* vhd (.vhd.xz)
* vhdx (.vhdx.xz)
* vmdk (.vmdk.xz)
All other image formats already defined a custom bundling
setup including compression and are not affected by this change.
This Fixes #650
