+Subject: [PATCH] Preserve changed API for cr_compress_file_with_stat (RhBug:1973588)
+
+In order to be compatible in rhel8 we want to preserve the old API and
+behavior.
+
+Keep the fixed version as cr_compress_file_with_stat_v2 only for rhel8
+
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1973588
+
+With fixed memory leak of `tmp_err`, reported here:
