Created attachment 327826 [details, diff] patch to fix this bug migrate to perl-module eclass
patch moves vzdump ebuilds to perl-module eclass, where is --rsyncable related problem?
rsyncable patch moved out of gzip, see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347638
Andreis, I think if we want this we should use pigz. But somebody should implement this :)
Upstream gzip 1.7 now implements --rsyncable Waiting this bug to be closed after gzip 1.7 hits stable branch
sys-apps/gzip-1.8 is in stable, closing this as FIXED
