Description of problem: Gzexe is unable to decompress the file it creates. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gzexe (gzip) 1.9 from package gzip-1.9-3.fc28.x86_64 and system up to date. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. gzexe a file 2. try to uncompress: gzexe -d or execute the auto-extractible file Actual results: gzip: stdin: not in gzip format /usr/bin/gzexe: test.txt probably not in gzexe format, file unchanged. Expected results: The orignal file uncompressed. Additional info: The bug come from a modification in the instructions include at the beginning of the generated file (header) (between line 147 and 195 in gzexe script). The script suppose a header of 44 lines long (skip=44, line 148), but currently, the header is 49 lines long. Changing the skip value from 44 to 49 fixed the problem.
Thanks for the report and the additional info, I'll look into it.
