Some recent GHC snapshot files seem to be broken.
For example with
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/current/dist/ghc-6.5.20060927-i386-unknown-linux.tar.bz2
I get:
$ tar jxf ghc-6.5.20060927-i386-unknown-linux.tar.bz2
bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;
perhaps it is corrupted? *Possible* reason follows.
bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)
It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become
corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such
files.
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to
recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
Yes, this is due to a long-standing problem with our firewalls that sometimes
cause corruption of an SSH connection. I'll try to make it retry or delete the
file on failure instead of leaving a broken tarball in place.
Cheers,
Simon
