Corrupt linux-source-2.6.12
I've apt-get'd the linux-source-2.6.12 package and when i try
to unpack it with with tar -jxvf I get this error:
[snip]
linux-source-2.6.12/drivers/usb/net/usbnet.c
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)
It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
I've tried to get it a couple times but keep getting the same error.
The mirror I'm using is http://debian.osuosl.org but I've tried others.
Is anyone else getting this error or is there a way to fix it? I've also
tried running the bzip2recover program with no success. Thank you
for your time
