GNU gzip NEWS

  • Noteworthy changes in release 1.13 (2023-08-19) [stable]

Changes in behavior

zless now diagnoses gzip failures, if using less 623 or later.

When SIGPIPE is ignored, gzip now exits with status 2 (warning) instead of status 1 (error) when writing to a broken pipe. This is more useful with programs like 'less' that treat gzip exit status 2 as a non-failure.

Bug fixes

'gzip -d' no longer fails to report invalid compressed data that uses a dictionary distance outside the input window. [bug present since the beginning]

Port to C23, which does not allow K&R-style function definitions with parameters, and which does not define __alignas_is_defined.
