Package: gzip
Version: 1.4-1
Severity: normal
While doing some QA work on Multi-Arch:same packages, we noticed that
gzip output is not always deterministic, even when using -n. The
attached examples were all produced on buildds[0], using gzip 1.4-1 with
-9n:
$ md5sum *.gz

The bug seem to trigger most often on amd64 and ia64, though sometimes
it pops up also on other architectures.
