Mike F/vapier has migrated ncompress from SF to Github and updated it. It is available in Fedora up to date. I updated the current build URIs to current GH and Fedora, rebuilt current thru latest versions with patch updates, both locally and on GH scallywag, and got the tests working, so I would like to adopt ncompress and provide the upgrade. If accepted, I will follow up patches with current developer.
