[Bug 1821499] Re: [Feature request] /etc/init/zram-config.conf has no any options. Please add a few.

[Brian Foster]

Starting with Disco Dingo (19.04) there is a new package `zram-tools'
which is roughly configurable as per many of the above wishes.

   https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zram-tools

>From eyeballing it, it seems like it should work on earlier releases
(but see caveats below); however, I have not tried.

Some caveats:

1. Have at most one of `zram-config' or `zram-tools' (NOT both)
installed.

2. The `zram-tools' defaults are slightly different from `zram-config'.

3. The version of `zram-tools' currently proposed for Eoan E<something> (19.10?)
   has some simple fixes and perhaps should be preferred?

I am currently using 19.04's 0.3.2-1 with Disco Dingo but will probably
switch to using 19.10's (Eoan's) 0.3.2-1-1 on that system to pick up the
above-mentioned configuration fixes.

Title:
  [Feature request] /etc/init/zram-config.conf has no any options.

Status in zram-config package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Such people as me would like to set some permanent paramenters for
  zram without editing /usr/bin/init-zram-swapping script file. I think
  it's wrong to edit something in /usr/bin.
