Context: I am compiling notmuch on OpenBSD which has a rather old zlib
1.2.3. It seems that the behaviour of gzgets() changed slightly between
this version and more recent versions, but the manual does not reflect
that change. Note that zlib's manual:
- does not specify which error code (Z_OK or Z_STREAM_END) is set when
EOF is reached,
- does not indicate the meaning of Z_STREAM_END after gzgets(), but
based on its meaning as a possible return value of inflate(), I would
guess that it means EOF.
amended by db: tidy commit message
int zlib_status = 0;
(void) gzerror (stream, &zlib_status);
switch (zlib_status) {
+ case Z_STREAM_END:
case Z_OK:
/* no data read before EOF */
if (offset == 0)
