Setup knows what to do with both bzip2 and gzip formats, without relying on the extension being right. It is actually a gzipped empty tar file - the new gcc-core binary package (which is in the "Misc" group) seems to be a placeholder for the associated sources. -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Is gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2 corrupted?
Hi, If I test gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2 I get the error: gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2: bad magic number (file not created by bzip2) You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover data from undamaged sections of corrupted files. I downloaded it twice from mirrors.rcn.net and once from mirrors.kernel.org with the same results. Setup doesn't have any problem with the MD5 sum. My bzip2 reports: bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor. Version 1.0.2, 30-Dec-2001. Is this error expected? Is my bzip2 too old to recognize some new bzip2 format? === John Daniel Doucette, Sr. Software Designer J. J.
