Betreff: Re: self compiled bzip2 does not
extract
Greetings. I see your message, but I can't
suggest anything much.
Sounds like a platform specific problem of
some kind.
I do know that bzip2 works ok, but without
large file support
and without copying file
permissions/ownership, if you tell gcc
-D_STRICT_ANSI, ie, stick to the letter of
ANSI C89. Perhaps that
could help?
Hope you get it sorted out. Pleased to see
Debian is working with
the Hurd.
Well, good hint, but it wasn't the
missing ANSI
standard option causing the trouble.
I sorted out, that the compiler macro
FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 caused the
problem. By removing this macro
everything works well.
Now, there is a partition size limitation
in the Hurd (ca. 1 GB) and I do not
know whether the aforementioned
problem stems from the same root.
Now debian/rules should check the OS
and if it finds the Hurd the macro
should not be used to have a properly
working bzip2.
Thank you, Julian.

Possible reason follows.

= sample1

The Hurd should implement the same
