Upx compresses a brltty binary by jsut over 50%. This looks tempting for things like boot disks, but there's a very significant potential problem. Upx needs /proc, and /proc is usually not mounted until somewhat into the boot sequence. With respect to brlstatx: Upx may not be a reasonable approach unless the brltty binaries it provides are only intended for use on an already booted system. If so, this restriction should be very clearly highlighted in the documentation. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
