The Xz package contains programs for compressing and decompressing files. It provides capabilities for the lzma and the newer xz compression formats. Compressing text files with xz yields a better compression percentage than with the traditional gzip or bzip2 commands.
Prepare Xz for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --host=$LFS_TGT \ --build=$(build-aux/config.guess) \ --disable-static \ --docdir=/usr/share/doc/xz-5.6.2
Compile the package:
make
Install the package:
make DESTDIR=$LFS install
Remove the libtool archive file because it is harmful for cross compilation:
rm -v $LFS/usr/lib/liblzma.la
