Oh, I see. Well, if you can get file from the chroot to report that same
result (that it isn't a gzip file), that will confirm that it's the bug in
file, and that one is already reported. It would be very interesting if
file in the chroot still said it was a gzip file, though, since that would
indicate that Lintian may be calling file incorrectly or some other issue
is present.
