bug#18239: z suffix


From: Sam Geeraerts
Subject: bug#18239: z suffix
Date: Sun, 10 Aug 2014 15:58:09 +0200

I would like to point out a bug that has already been reported last
year [1].

Observed behaviour:

$ echo foo > test
$ gzip --suffix z test
$ ls testz
testz
$ gzip -d --suffix z testz
gzip: testz: unknown suffix -- ignored

Expected behaviour:

$ gzip -d --suffix z testz
$ ls test
test

From the comment in function get_suffix I gather that the "z" suffix is
overlooked in the sequence of suffixes to try. I've attached a patch
that makes it work for me.

Kind regards,
Sam
