The one strange thing about this is that we don't support these compression tools being missing, as we do with other tools. If 'lz4' is needed and not present, binman just fails. This predates your change, but I just noticed it.
I think this is OK though, at least for now. We could handle a missing algo by returning empty data and marking the entry as 'missing', but I don't see a great need for it at present. The compression tools are widely available and easy to install.
I have add a commit to the series for it.
