Re: B20: dev-src error

["Doug Wyatt" <dwyatt at sunflower dot com>]

Hi,

Just for the heck of it, I downloaded the file in question (dev-src.tar.bz2) from:

ftp://ftp.ccp14.dl.ac.uk/ccp14/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/cygwin-b20/

and ran:

bzcat dev-src.tar.bz2 | tar -tvf -

It indexed the entire compressed archive without a hitch -  a fairly good indicator
that a tar archive is consistent.

It's likely that your problem is a result of something like a non-binary ftp transfer
(size of dev-src.tar.bz2 = 25143664; sum dev-src.tar.bz2: 41452 1  on my system,
Cygwin CDv1), or something more local to your setup.

Regards,
Doug Wyatt
