By removing useless swfdec git history (nodist_ or shallow fetch):

-rw-r--r--  1 buildbot nogroup 15248709 Mar 18 16:39 gnash-0.8.9dev.tar.gz
  or
-rw-r--r--  1 buildbot nogroup 12301965 Mar 18 16:42 gnash-0.8.9dev2.tar.bz2

12-15MB still too much? I'll revert.

The swfdec sources wind up in the tarball because of the fetch via a dist-hook. Using filter-branch, the entire swfdec testsuite is a total of 53M, but 49M of it is the trace sub-directory. This includes the git history as well.

This is about tarball, not fetching. How big is the smaller version ?

The release branch has dropped this already. I did make a much smaller swfdec git repo using filter-branch, so maybe we should just host this on gnashdev.org and suck it down from there.

Agreed. We shouldn't make swfdec part of the tarball (nor part of the same repository, IMHO).

After addition of the entire swfdec tree, the Gnash tarball is 34MB rather than 5-6, which is excessive both for distribution and for downloading. Can we please remove swfdec from the dist?
