You're right. file-roller actually looks for both compress and uncompress,
while only the latter exists, even if all we want to do is uncompress. gzip
doesn't handle compressing files to .Z format, only uncompressing them.
from src/fr-command-tar.c:
if ((prog == FR_COMPRESS_PROGRAM_COMPRESS) &&
((!is_program_in_path("compress")) ||
(!is_program_in_path("uncompress")))) {
return NULL;
}
