 <longdescription>
		This package provides a pure interface for compressing and
		decompressing streams of data represented as lazy
		'ByteString's. It uses the
		&lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zlib zlib C library&gt;
		so it has high performance. It supports the \"zlib\",
		\"gzip\" and \"raw\" compression formats.
		
		It provides a convenient high level API suitable for most
		tasks and for the few cases where more control is needed it
		provides access to the full zlib feature set.

 <use>
  <flag name="bundled-c-zlib">Use the bundled zlib C sources. Requires pkg-config to be False. For windows, this is the default.</flag>
  <flag name="non-blocking-ffi">The (de)compression calls can sometimes take a long time, which prevents other Haskell threads running. Enabling this flag avoids this unfairness, but with greater overall cost.</flag>
