No, because the outcome is not the same. It uses pure gzip and usually people want more gzip (or bzip2) options when using it in a pipe, eg. maximum compression with bzip2 -9. That said, I feel guilty for adding that particular bad example (without -f-) in the documentation of module-assistant. Sorry people. > verify his/her own package.

People who put $TAPE into the default environment may also link /dev/null to /dev/hda (or /dev/sda) and complain to the coretutils maintainer because ln isn't unable to think for them.
