I have no idea what's wrong. Unfortunately, I won't be able to test anything till tonight at the earliest. Try this. Edit the file zip.c. At line 1219 you'll see # if 0 Change that to # if 1 and rebuild zip. Then run "zip -v" and let me know what zip reports. In particular, we want to see the following: Zip special compilation options: * size of int: 4 * size of long: 4 * size of long long: 8 * size of off_t: 8 __LF is defined. off_t must be defined as a long long If you see anything else, we have a real problem.
