pbgzip can't decompress regular gzipped files

[bskubi]

Minimal example:

echo abc > demo.txt
gzip demo.txt
pbgzip -d demo.txt.gz

Output:

invalid block header
reader reader_read_block: bug encountered

gzip version: 1.13
pbgzip version: 2016.08.04

This is an issue for me because some of the bioinformatics software I rely on is based on pbgzip, and it's therefore not able to robustly handle the gzipped tsv files we routinely use in data processing. Note also that gzip is able to decompress pbgzipped files.

echo abc > demo.txt
pbgzip demo.txt
gzip -d demo.txt.gz
cat demo.txt

Output: abc

It would be great to see decompression of regular gzipped files supported by pbgzip!
