Log Message:
gzip: Update to 1.15

* Noteworthy changes in release 1.15 (2026-09-20) [stable]

** Bug fixes

gzip no longer can mistakenly remove the wrong file if some other
process simultaneously renames a gzip destination's ancestor.
[bug present since the beginning]

gzip -d no longer rejects PKZIP signatures, local header, and data
descriptors.  These can appear in well-formed streamed zip files.
[bug present since the beginning]

gzip diagnostics now quote file names containing unusual characters.
[bug present since the beginning]

A use of uninitialized memory on some malformed inputs has been fixed.
[bug present since the beginning]

A buffer overflow has been fixed when decompressing an .lzh file
after decompressing a .Z file.
[bug present since the beginning]

When decompressing an .lzh file, the output is no longer corrupted
when an internal bit buffer is not properly cleared.
[bug present since the beginning]

When decompressing an .lzh file after another .lzh file, the output is
no longer corrupted by the previous file's decoding table.
[bug present since the beginning]

gzip --synchronous no longer fails to synchronize unreadable parent
directories on platforms like GNU/Linux that have O_PATH, or to
synchronize any parent directories on platforms like FreeBSD that
have O_SEARCH but not O_PATH.
[bug introduced in gzip-1.7]

On old-fashioned or limited platforms lacking mktemp, gzexe, zdiff
and znew no longer have a race when creating a temporary file.
[bug present since the beginning]

** Changes in behavior

gzip no longer insists on the "C" locale; instead, it follows the
typical practice of using the locale specified by the environment.
This change, which is needed for file name quoting, can affect the
format of floating-point numbers output by gzip's -l and -v options.
Diagnostics are still in English, though.

gzip -l now reports "-Inf%" instead of "0.0%" for the infinite
compression ratio of an empty file.

znew's -P option is now ignored, with a warning.  It was present
only to improve performance, and its implementation had too many
bugs to be worth supporting.

** Platforms no longer supported

The following platforms (or earlier) are no longer supported because
their old multibyte libraries do not work well enough: FreeBSD 4.11
(2005), HP-UX 11.00 (1997), Minix 3.1.8 (2010), MS-Windows 8.1
(2013) via mingw without UCRT.
