Juergen came up with a patch that lets users choose what compression scheme to use for packages created by pkgmk. Supported compression algorithms are gzip, bzip2 and xz.
I now extended the patch with some text for the pkgmk.conf manpage and renamed PKGMK_COMPRESS_EXT to PKGMK_COMPRESS_MODE (that feels like a better fit to me).
D'oh. I just noticed Juergen already did this work and put an updated patch in Flyspray. Please test the patch attached to http://crux.nu/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=581 instead.
