Details

Since less was removed as dependency in FS#56675, this package is missing zless if build in a clean chroot without less present, since gzip's configure script disables less support if the binary is not present.

I would suggest adding less to makedeps.

To reproduce:

  1. Build gzip in a completely clean chroot.
  2. Check the resulting package for zless.
