Problems with the tarball

[Marco Gerards <metgerards@student.han.nl>]

Hi,

On #hurd there was someone with the `./native-install: cannot make
pipe for command substitution: Protocol family not supported'
problem.  That means the `/hurd/pflocal' translator was not set on
`/servers/socket/1'.

He was using The
`http://eu.hurd.gnuab.org/debian/base/debian-gnu-hurd-2004.05.09.tar.gz'
tarball.  Are there other people with the same problem and what caused
this problem?  Is this tarball the one that is distributed with the
mini-iso or is this one generated with crosshurd?

If the tarball is broken, can someone remove it?  Or possible replace
it with the tarball that is used for the mini-iso (assuming it is not
broken)?  It sucks that many people who are trying GNU/Hurd experience
this problem, if they don't come to #hurd or ask on the list there is
no way they will get a working system.

Thanks,
Marco
