That's not surprising, since -k was added in gzip 1.6. Time to upgrade.

Hello Support,

The command gzip -k filename is not recognized on my RHEL 7 virtual machine. I am using gzip version 1.5.
I am able to use gzip filename with success. In addition, -k is not listed as an option in -help, but it is listed in your documentation as a way to keep the original file. Is there a way to zip a file but still keep the original file?

Your help is appreciated!

Thank you.
