before, install plzip and all your Lzip operations are now parallelized
automatically.
+Additional lzip-compressor and lzip-decompressor are provided, both as virtual
+packages as well as alternatives in /usr/bin. This allows one to use a mixed
+mode of setting lzip alternatives globally, such as using plzip for
+decompression and lzip for compression.

implementation (e.g. use 'Depends: lzip-alternative | lzip' or
'Depends: lzip-alternative | plzip', not 'Depends: lzip').
+ * use compressor or decompressor explicitly (e.g. use
