Follow-up Comment #20:
Re-opened because of comment #18.
According to comment #3, gzip 1.6 is required:
- RHEL/CentOS 7 (2014 - 2024)
https://centos.pkgs.org/7/centos-x86_64/gzip-1.5-10.el7.x86_64.rpm.html
- Debian 9 "stretch" (2017 - 2022) has 1.6
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=sourcenames&keywords=gzip
- Ubuntu 18.04 (2018 - 2023) has 1.6 https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/gzip
Agree to comment #19. Waiting for the last oldtimer to upgrade his system is
very luxurious (unpaid?) support. A warning might be sufficient.
There are plenty of Octave container solutions available + compiling a newer
gzip from source.
In addition, the changes happen on Octave 7, which will be released next (or
next next 😇) year. In 2022 RHEL 7 is even more stale than today.
