PPA description

zlib-ng for Ubuntu, replacing system's zlib.

Installing zlib packages from this PPA will replace zlib with zlib-ng: https://github.com/zlib-ng/zlib-ng

A lot of programs use system's zlib library. Installing this is the easiest way to give the system a nice speed boost.

# cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/zlib-ng
Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-arter97-zlib-ng
Pin-Priority: 1000

# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/51unattended-upgrades-zlibng
Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern:: "o=LP-PPA-arter97-zlib-ng";

Install (upgrade) the zlib1g package:
# apt install zlib1g

You may encounter warnings on packages being downgraded. This can be safely ignored.
