Package: pristine-tar
Version: 0.17
Severity: wishlist

zgz currently forks gzip to generate GNU gzip files, if given the --gnu
option.  Doing so relies on GNU gzip to never change its output.  Using
an internal gzip library in zgz would ensure that zgz can always
reproduce files even if GNU gzip changes, and would also remove the need
for zgz to fork a separate process.
