here:
813499 Mar 5 16:07 busybox-0.60.2.tar.gz
i can't see the correct byte size in my browser in
the /downloads-directory, but i think that's
realistic.. it shows me 794 kb..
md5sum of my file:
06a5f9cb4ddb75da2b876d3a7f14654d
busybox-0.60.2.tar.gz
>try breaking it down into 2 steps, that give you
more info on whats wrong.

>gunzip busybox-0.60.2.tar.gz
>tar -xf busybox-0.60.2.tar
well, here:
---
stingray:~# gunzip busybox-0.60.2.tar.gz
gunzip: busybox-0.60.2.tar.gz: unexpected end of
file
---
so the 2nd step isn't possible anymore..
altrough the direct tar command extracted some
files, but it's impossible to compile them (not all
i think)..
hey, can't somebody extract the tar.gz on his
machine, repack it als bz2 and set it to me (pm)?
;-)
or any other ideas?
thanks!

well, first i'm not a really package fan. if i have
the chance to compile it myself, that's the best..
i downloaded the package and there's no chance to
get it running on potato (it's not a requirement,
but i had to test it)..

yeah, i don't consider to update my glibc without
the distro ;) i know, i should upgrade.. but time's
not around, the server is potato and i don't want to
change all the stuff 'til woody is released really
really stable ;-)
