[Andrew McCarthy]

Thanks for reporting this. This was fixed back in gzip version 1.6-1,
and the oldest version of gzip in a supported version of Ubuntu is
1.6-3ubuntu1. Closing!

Title:
  --rsyncable option not documented in man page

Status in gzip package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gzip package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  ## Package Information

  Description:	Ubuntu 12.10
  Release:	12.10
  gzip/quantal uptodate 1.5-1.1ubuntu1

  ## Bug Description

  `man 1 gzip` does not contain any information about the `--rsyncable`
  option.  However, the output of `gzip -h` explains the option as
  follows:

      --rsyncable       Make rsync-friendly archive

  The option should be documented in the man page.
