[Bug 1933516] [NEW] gzip: error while loading shared libraries: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Operation not permitted

[Dan Streetman]

Public bug reported:

[impact]

gzip/libgzip fails for systemd services using MemoryDenyWriteExecute=yes

[test case]

note this only fails on ppc64el for this test case

can be reproduced with systemd localed-locale e.g.:
https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/-/merge_requests/116#note_245685

install upstream systemd from ppa:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-support-team/+archive/ubuntu/systemd

get the upstream autopkgtests:
https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/-/tree/debian/master/debian/tests

run the 'localed-locale' test

[regression potential]

TBD

[scope]

this is needed only in b

this was fixed in debian at version 1.9-2.1, so this is fixed already in
f and later
