Description mike wakerly 2003-02-17 18:37:10 UTC

hi there... just tried emerging xmms-arts. following is the bad checksum
transcript. (i will investigate further and report back, but i wanted to record
this while i still have the console output...)

i have both of the tarballs and will compare them to see what the difference is.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:





just try emerging again to workaround this one. it's also possible that whatever
caused the different file to be downloaded has gone away now.

Comment 1 mike wakerly 2003-02-17 18:54:31 UTC

after inspecting both .tar.gz files, they both appear to gunzip to an identical tarball. the sizes are the same and the extracted files look the same. (can some suggest an authoratative way to diff the two tarballs and/or extracted directories?)

so it appears that the 'bad' .tar.gz file was compressed differently. i'm not too familiar with checksum errors in gentoo so maybe someone might explain what has happened? (i'm guessing this is no big deal, hence minor...)

cheers...
