The “gzip” package provides “gunzip”, a simple wrapper script that calls
“gzip”.  However, it calls “gzip” unqualified, so the “gzip” executable
must be on the PATH for gunzip to work.

The fix is to replace “gzip” on the line

    exec gzip -d "$@"

in “gunzip.in” with the full path to the “gzip” binary.

This should be done in the next core-updates cycle.

This is fixed with commit 48623f5be854e923b04ae83a1a882ff1cefdc742 in
