We are on OS 10.9.5, we are a dental office using MacPractice practice management software.  The MacPractice software does a scheduled backup each night then uses gzip to compress the info.  We are having intermittent backup failures and the MacPractice IT guys say that it is a failure with the gzip.  What do we need to do to reinstall or repair the gzip?

That's pretty vague, unfortunately. What exactly is the bug? Can you 
give us a recipe so that we can reproduce the bug?
