Package: gzip
Version: 1.12-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the package gzip currently creates the following hardlinks:

/bin/gunzip
/bin/uncompress

Please choose one to be a symlink to the other instead. These are one of the 
few hardlinks on my system and make backup software complain. Other software in 
debian repositories also uses the symlink method when they want an executable 
to be started with different names.

Thank you.
