It is (or will be) used by setup.exe and is provided specifically for that purpose. No other uses are supported. However, for testing purposes it does provide mingw versions of the following tools: mingw-xz.exe, mingw-xzdec.exe, and mingw-lzmadec.exe, in addition to the libraries and headers needed for setup.exe development. The xz package is the successor to lzma. Its command-line tools support both .lzma files and the new .xz format. The xz package provides a new runtime library: liblzma supports encoding as well as decoding, both .lzma and .xz streams.
