Hello,
I'm trying to install latex2html into my OSX10.1.5 system, but the
installation stops with:

tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
### tar failed, exit code 2
Unpacking the tarball w3c-libwww-5.3.2.tar.gz of package libwww-5.3.2-2
failed. The most likely cause for this is a corrupted or incomplete
download.
Do you want to delete the tarball and download it again? [Y/n] y

The reply of 'yes' repeats the error. Any ideas? The entire transcript of
this transaction is below my signature script.

thanks,
Ray Brock
