           Summary: libXpm should use zlib for compression/decompression
           Product: xorg
           Version: CVS_head
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Lib/Xpm
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: alan.coopersmith at sun.com


Currently libXpm twists through a bunch of contortions to fork/exec compress
and gzip for reading and writing .xpm.Z and .xpm.gz files.   It would be simpler,
faster, and safer to simply use zlib to do this instead - any volunteers?
