Bram just kindly pointed out to me something terribly obvious in hindsight. The build recipe for vim was using *ftp* to download patches: all those containing non ASCII (ie, UTF-8, some other encodings for tests) were likely to be corrupted, eg, 7.3.336, which I can't delete.
$ wget http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.3/7.3.336 $ gdiff -q /home/src/7.3.336 /tmp/7.3.336 Files /home/src/7.3.336 and /tmp/7.3.336 differ It's difficult to know which are correct and which are not, so I'd rather just start over clean. On my personal system, for some reason, 7.3.336 was downloaded correctly, but 7.3.838 was corrupted. I've modified the recipe to use http and will redownload them all. The checksums will have to be updated. Ah, FTP. I need to get reminded from time to time why nobody should use it anymore ;-) Thanks in advance, Laurent _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
