Hi there,

As explained in the README, the compression algorithm that BackupPC uses is
slightly different to the one used by zlib/pigz. In some rare occasions,
this results in a corrupted file when uncompressed by zlib/pigz. Most of
the time the "ZLIB/PIGZ ERROR" above is related to this, so the script
re-checks them by uncompressing them using BackupPC_zcat. If the error
persists, then you will see an extra "CHECKSUM ERROR", which means the file
is actually corrupted.

Is there some compelling reason not to use BackupPC_zcat in the first place?
