Patches were not touched. All were applied properly
Just some info: -dropped all patches (almost all issues are fixed in new upstream version, sometimes in different way) - only patch gzip-1.3.12-openbsd-owl-tmp.patch is untested - code is changed significantly and patch is undocumented from archaic time, so I drop it too Here are the current NEWS entries: =============================== ** Changes in behavior The GZIP environment variable is now obsolescent; gzip now warns if it is used, and rejects attempts to use dangerous options or operands. You can use an alias or script instead. ** New features gzip now accepts the --synchronous option, which causes it to use fsync and similar primitives to transfer output data to the output file's storage device when the file system supports this. Although this option makes gzip safer in the presence of system crashes, it can make gzip considerably slower. gzip now accepts the --rsyncable option. This option is accepted in all modes, but has effect only when compressing: it makes the resulting output more amenable to efficient use of rsync. For example, when a large input file gets a small change, a gzip --rsyncable image of that file will remain largely unchanged, too. Without --rsyncable, even a tiny change in the input could result in a totally different gzip-compressed output file.
