Build system: Use GZIP_ENV instead of GZIP
Older versions of gzip assume the GZIP environment variable contains flags[1]. Building netsniff-ng on a system with such a version of gzip will yield the following error: INST netsniff-ng/netsniff-ng gzip -9 -c netsniff-ng.8 > netsniff-ng/netsniff-ng.8.gz gzip: gzip: No such file or directory A practical alternative to redefining GZIP in the Makefile seems to be to use the GZIP_ENV make variable[2] instead. [1] The GZIP environment variable was deprecated in gzip version 1.7. See https://www.gnu.org/software/gzip/manual/html_node/Environment.html and https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gzip.git/tree/NEWS for more information.
