Thx, but the binaries will then currently conflict witz gzip, which also
provides zcat, zgrep, zdiff.

The obvious solution is gzip maintainer renaming zcat, zgrep and zdiff to gzcat, gzgrep and gzdiff. I wrote him, but he has not answered yet. I'll write to him again.

IMHO it is better for users a single set of utilities with support for several compressors instead of every compressor distributing its own tool for its own format.
