dpkg has not used the gzip command for a very long long time (prior to dpkg 1.9.x), and zlib does not initialize the gzip header, so the timestamp should be 0. If there are differences these should come from something else, like different tar files fo example.

I can of course add the option to the fallback command code, just out of correctness, but that will not fix any difference you are currently seeing.

Interesting. I wonder if the problem is slightly different timestamps in the contents of data.tar.gz then, and this is a red herring.

Adding this to the fallback code sounds great, but yeah, I agree it's not super related to what I'm seeing. (-:

Thanks!
