Before gzip-1.7 [1], there was no --rsyncable option, so qtwebengine (at least 5.9.2 and 5.9.3) fails with: File "/var/tmp/portage/dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.9.3/work/qtwebengine-opensource-src-5.9.3/src/3rdparty/chromium/tools/grit/grit/format/gzip_string.py", line 26, in GzipStringRsyncable subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'gzip' returned non-zero exit status 1 ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. Line 26 of that file is: gzip_proc = subprocess.Popen(['gzip', '--stdout', '--rsyncable', '--best', '--no-name'], [1] http://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=8495
