- Update to 1.13:
* 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.
* '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.
- Refreshed manpage-no-date.patch

- update to 1.12:
* 'gzip -l' no longer misreports file lengths 4 GiB and larger.
Previously, 'gzip -l' output the 32-bit value stored in the gzip
header even though that is the uncompressed length modulo 2**32.
Now, 'gzip -l' calculates the uncompressed length by decompressing
the data and counting the resulting bytes. Although this can take
much more time, nowadays the correctness pros seem to outweigh the
performance cons.
* 'zless' is no longer installed on platforms lacking 'less'.
* zgrep applied to a crafted file name with two or more newlines
can no longer overwrite an arbitrary, attacker-selected file.
[bug introduced in gzip-1.3.10]
* zgrep now names input file on error instead of mislabeling it as
"(standard input)", if grep supports the GNU -H and --label options.
* 'zdiff -C 5' no longer misbehaves by treating '5' as a file name.
* Configure-time options like --program-prefix now work.
- refresh zdiff.diff, zgrep.diff, zmore.diff

- Version update to release 1.7:
* gzip now accepts the --synchronous option
* gzip now accepts the --rsyncable option
* The GZIP environment variable is now obsolescent
* Installed programs like 'zgrep' now use the PATH environment variable as

- Remove obsolete patch tempfile.diff
- Remove upstreamed patch gzip-rsyncable.diff
- Rebase manpage-no-date.patch to apply to 1.7 version
