Hmm. I see no build failure in X11:XOrg. So where did you spot this build failure? Also, the patch disables compress, not uncompress. The latter is part of gzip package.

I don't understand, why your change would help to fix this build failure. I'm afraid you need to explain. I still need to understand the changes I accept for my packages. I still do care about them
The dep chain is nginx -> libdg3 -> libXpm4 -> gzip, but the image has busybox-gzip preinstalled. With this, libXpm4's dependency is satisfied because busybox-gzip also provides /usr/bin/gzip.
That wasn't obvious to me, that we repackage our tools additionally in busybox "sub"packages. I'm not happy, but I see no other solution either. But to be consequent we should also require /usr/bin/uncompress, not only /usr/bin/gzip. I will accept your SR and adjust the specfile accordingly. I will also add your explanation.

It's not repackaged - it's an alternative implementation provided by busybox, for resource constrained environments
