Hi Jim, For gzip, I've now set up a continuous integration: https://gitlab.com/gnu-gzip/ci-distcheck
If you want to co-maintain it with me, let me know your GitLab login name, so that I can assign you the permissions. While setting up this CI, I noticed two problems: 1) bootstrap.conf specifies that 'rsync' is needed. But rsync is not needed any more by 'gnulib-tool' and by 'bootstrap' since 2018-10-07. <https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=commit;h=0ddd440d18af7bb10437642f12721d83092f0bea> Patch attached. 2) The problem reported in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2023-01/msg00005.html Bruno
