Greetings to all you ELKSers out there.

A new snapshot of the current ELKS development tree is now available at the usual place:

http://compsolutions.ath.cx:88/elks/

The release is dated 2006-05-15 and contains a batch of patches from the eternally busy Tom McCabe (thanks again!) that fix a lot of build problems. It's getting about time for the C gurus to hop back in and start actually hacking on the code, wouldn't you think?

If I knew C, I'd do it, but I don't, and I'm in the middle of planning a business venture, so I'm up to my ears in work at the moment. I've got just enough time to maintain these releases and tie up loose ends. Don't worry! ELKS will remain actively maintained no matter how busy I get, so keep patches and reports rolling in.

Happy hacking!

Hi!

I've tried to unpack .tar.bz2 file, but it seems damaged.
Some files have been extracted but I don't know if it's all of them.
I have also tried to download it again, but it doesn't seem to be a download error.

I don't know, I checked the tar help file but can't seem to find a command to display the error. If todo is the last file in the list then perhaps this is a bogus error message from bzip2 to tar?

Hi!
I've tried to unpack .tar.bz2 file, but it seems damaged.
Some files have been extracted but I don't know if it's all of them.
I have also tried to download it again, but it doesn't seem to be a

Thanks Vikas,
But unfortunately I get the same error,
elksnet/screen/SharFile.Headers
elksnet/todo
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

Quoted 5 lines

Scroll up --- the error occurred while tar was unpacking an earlier
file. (If something goes wrong, it'll continue and try and do as many
other files as possible before stopping.)

I grepped it for earlier errors and got nothing. It's tar that's doing it; bzip2 works fine. I get this message at the beginning of the file:

tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header

I use a Win32 port of tar and gzip and bzip2.

I pack with:

tar -c elks* | bzip2 > elks-xxxxxxxx.tar.bz2

I've been doing this all along though. I can repack later, I just got some new patches anyway.

Thanks!

I don't know, I checked the tar help file but can't seem to find a command to display the error. If todo is the last file in the list then perhaps this is a bogus error message from bzip2 to tar?

Hi!
I've tried to unpack .tar.bz2 file, but it seems damaged. Some files have been extracted but I don't know if it's all of them. I have also tried to download it again, but it doesn't seem to be a download error.
