I'm guessing that the expected and obtained values are flipped?

I think not. The compressor stores in the member trailer the CRC and size of the uncompressed data. Then the decompressor compares the CRC and size "obtained" during decompression with those stored in the trailer (the "expected" ones).

If the trailer is corrupt, the "expected" values will be wrong.


Best regards,
Antonio.
