Hello all,

I am having trouble with an updated apt.dat file. I think it is with  
compressing it. I used the command 'tar cfz apt.dat.gz apt.dat'. Is  
this correct?

When I put the compressed file into FG, but there were problems  
loading. First, it fell over on line 2 (the version number and  
copyright), so I removed that. It then gets through the file, but  
seems to get stuck in an infinite loop, not recognising the end of  
the file. The log looks like this:

and thus it continues indefinitely. The text it is reading from the  
file is correct, so it seems to be some subtle character set encoding  
thing, perhaps?

Thanks
