-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I am noticing an error when compressing/decompressing using xz on Fedora 20. I was initially using xz-5.1.2-8alpha.fc20.x86_64 but then upgraded to xz-5.1.2-12alpha.fc20.x86_64 to see if that would fix things, but it didn't seem to help. I have a file at [1] that I am compressing/decompressing using xz. I first uncompress it so that it is a plain text file and then compress it with xz. I then decompress it back to plain text and compare with the original. I keep getting differences.. For example: [dustymabe@localhost traces]$ cat /tmp/diffs - --- /mnt/SEQ_LBM.t.gz.uncompressed 2015-01-04 17:14:33.178364955 -0500 +++ /mnt/SEQ_LBM.t.xz.uncompressed 2015-01-04 20:32:20.951230115 -0500 @@ -125953555,7 +125953555,7 @@ r 0x7f0422a8 w 0x7a7a0218 r 0x6d480000 - -r 0x7f0422a8 +p 0x7f0422a8 w 0x7a7a00e0 r 0x6d480008 r 0x7f0422a8 Can someone please download the file at [1] (~194M) and run a similar test on it? The sums on the file are as follows for the gz compressed and uncompressed forms: [dustymabe@localhost traces]$ sha256sum SEQ_LBM.t.gz /mnt/SEQ_LBM.t.gz.uncompressed 017b3456df8e658e2e50ff3f33ca66ce11eb91b59abfd6c3d259502b53951608 SEQ_LBM.t.gz ca07c3604b104631bf377cac62537a40bd79be1c3971a23e7605843d5c588e72 /mnt/SEQ_LBM.t.gz.uncompressed Please confirm if you see the behavior or not or possibly point me to a bug/commit where this issue was already fixed.
