Hello to the list, this morning I stumbled about a "pkg_add" problem when running OpenBSD 6.0 amd64 Release on an actual Virtualbox release. Doesn't matter which host platform (I tried Mac OS Sierra and Windows 10 and 7).
Virtualbox settings: 5GB hardisk 512 MB RAM tested two network card settings: virtio-net and Intel 1000 Pro desktop tested NATed and bridged settings. Version: OpenBSD 6.0 (GENERIC) #2148: Tue Jul 26 12:55:20 MDT 2016 for example: (used a local mirror) # pkg_add wget quirks-2.241 signed on 2016-07-26T16:56:10Z wget-1.18:libunistring-0.9.6p0: ok Fatal error: Ustar [http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/openbsd/6.0/packages/amd64/libidn-1.32p1.t gz][share/emacs/site-lisp/idna.el]: Premature end of archive Adjusting sha for /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/pkg.VkQ6RBfrzy from DF8Nwh8xhTWpgYsivuBL7K8CMpbPKojbQJsyD0Paplk= to 47DEQpj8HBSa+/TImW+5JCeuQeRkm5NMpJWZG3hSuFU= Fatal error: Installation of libidn-1.32p1 failed, partial installation recorded as partial-libidn-1.32p1 at /usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/PkgAdd.pm line 817. -- doesn't depend on mirror -- doesn't depend on guest RAM settings -- doesn't depend on guest network card settings -- doesn't depend on acceleration settings in Virtualbox (well, I think so...) ...and a little bit strange: _sometimes_ pkg_add works with small packages: example 2a (same as ex 1): # pkg_add ipcalc quirks-2.241 signed on 2016-07-26T16:56:10Z Fatal error: Ustar [http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/openbsd/6.0/packages/amd64/ipcalc-1.4p0.tg z][bin/ipcalc]: Premature end of archive Adjusting sha for /usr/local/bin/pkg.F5nNSjqcJf from Htiq8Hrei0yMn/IWm+Y9dXTq3pZeZyBrbbv98+o9eoA= to 47DEQpj8HBSa+/TImW+5JCeuQeRkm5NMpJWZG3hSuFU= Fatal error: Installation of ipcalc-1.4p0 failed, partial installation recorded as partial-ipcalc-1.4p0 at /usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/PkgAdd.pm line 817. example 2b: # rm -R /var/db/pk/partial-* # pkg_add ipcalc quirks-2.241 signed on 2016-07-26T16:56:10Z ipcalc-1.4p0: ok Building packages from ports works fine (apparently) Any hints to look further? Anyone who had similar problems? Every hint is welcome, I'm clueless... ;-) best regards Andre Ruppert [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pkcs7-signature which had a name of smime.p7s]
