I've received one reply, and thanks again, but I had better remove the gzip-"inconsistency" related bloat from my own previous email... I need the previous text to make the remaining three important parts/issues/inconsistencies clearer and easier to check, and reply to, any of the three.
I will also reorder my quotes to get them easier to skip or skip to, since they are separate issues/inconsistencies. On 170501-18:17+0200, Miroslav Rovis wrote: ...
