   - Includes the last fixes from IBM for bsc#1166260 IBM Z mainframes
     starting from version z15 provide DFLTCC instruction, which implements
     deflate algorithm in hardware with estimated compression and
     decompression performance
     orders of magnitude faster than the current zlib and ratio comparable
      with that of level 1.
