Comment(by kaner):
I tried poking at a third option pointed out to me by Runa, upx:
http://upx.sourceforge.net/
I tried unpacking Linux and OSX TBB packages, compressing the binaries and
libs with upx and re-packing them:
In a nutshell, I did (similar with OSX package):
{{{
tar xzf tor-browser-gnu-linux-i686-1.1.14-dev-fa.tar.gz
cd tor-browser_fa
find | xargs upx -9
cd ..
tar czf -9 tor-browser_fa.tgz tor-browser_fa/
}}}
What sounded quite promising on upx' website turned out to be not so
fantastic after all (The first package is *before* upx, the latter one
*after* upx):
Linux:
{{{
-rw-r--r-- 1 kaner kaner 24M Aug 28 15:26 tor-browser-gnu-
linux-i686-1.1.14-dev-fa.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 kaner kaner 24M Sep 4 12:17 tor-browser_fa.tgz
}}}
OSX:
{{{
-rw-r--r-- 1 kaner kaner 25M Aug 28 02:14 TorBrowser-1.0.24-dev-
osx-i386-fa.zip
-rw-r--r-- 1 kaner kaner 25M Sep 4 12:21 TorBrowser_fa.app.zip
}}}
So unless I've done something wrong packaging, no new option here.
