gunzip changes lastmod time?
On an older box still running 3.5; gunzip/gzip does not change lastmod time; but on 4.0 [release] gunzip changes the lastmod time. What's the reason for this change? $ dmesg dmesg.txt $ touch -t 20070101 dmesg.txt $ ls -l dmesg.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 fbax fbax 3797 Jan 1 00:00 dmesg.txt $ gzip dmesg.txt $ ls -l dmesg.txt.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 fbax fbax 1829 Jan 1 00:00 dmesg.txt.gz $ gunzip dmesg.txt.gz $ ls -l dmesg.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 fbax fbax 3797 Apr 19 13:15 dmesg.txt
