I have noticed that all package URLs in trunk are updated in order to point to $(HTTPBLFS)/.../$(DIR).tar.bz2 files. However, in many cases, upstream distributes only *.tar.gz files. How do you generate *.tar.bz2 from *.tar.gz? Attempts to zcat file.tar.gz | bzip2 >file.tar.bz2 (in order to avoid expensive re-downloading of all packages) produce sha1sum mismatch.


Hi Alexander,

I cannot speak for the BLFS packages, as I have no control over them, but for the LFS packages, it is done exactly as you showed. I have tested the trunk livecd a bit, and besides (html_tidy) and a lex script error when reaching klibc, I haven't seen any sha1sum mismatches.

Which packages are giving you trouble?

Almost all BLFS packages, e.g. libjpeg.
