-Subject: [PATCH] src/snagrecover/utils.py: import compression modules when
- needed
-
-Commit 4f98bdec5ebeb13d9f851f848c3bd0086ef31eeb ("snagflash: Support
-on-the-fly decompression of input files") has added unconditional
-imports of lzma, bz2 and gzip Python modules, even if compressed input
-files are not used.
-
-Switch to dynamic imports where these modules are only imported
-on-demand. This allows to relax the need to have support for those
-modules in Python, which can be helpful in environments such as
-Buildroot where dependencies are kept to a minimum.
-
-Upstream: https://github.com/bootlin/snagboot/pull/95
-[Thomas: upstream version is different as upstream master branch also
-supports zstd compression, which wasn't supported as of v2.6.1 of
-snagboot]
-Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com>
