Hey Group;
In Alpha5 what would cause a previous and today downloaded
OpenOffice.tar.gz not to unzip. Using either tar -xzvf or straight
gunzip. I get a failed "invalid compressed-data format" error
At first I thought I had a bad ooo.tar.gz so I downloaded it again.
SuSE supplied gzip-1.3.12-15
Open Office OOo_2.2.1_LinuxIntel_install_wJRE_en-US.tar.gz
Any ideas
Furthermore gzip-1.3.12.tar.gz fails to compile properly failing on a
/usr/include/ system headers.
Number 3 try - (alternate method)
I downloaded OOo_2.2.1_LinuxIntel_install_wJRE_en-US.tar.gz for the
third time. As a test I opened it with Ark Zipper then exported to a
directory. Then "cp -R" to a place (/mnt/sda10/o/OOo} that I do all of
this kind of stuff. I then did as OO suggested and cleared unwanted
rpms then did "-Uvih RPM/open*.rpm". And it worked.
I must conclude the problem is with either tar or gzip. Ark Zipper and
RPM worked. A fresh version of gzip will not compile. when run
directly gzip errors out in the same place.
