Re: [Shunit2-users] shunit2-2.0.3.tgz format [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

[Malcolm G. <M.G...@bo...>]

Hi Kate,
=20
Yes, that would explain it. I used Firefox to download shunit2-2.0.3.tgz
=20
It's not something you have any control over. Perhaps Sourceforge could
provide some generic download tips to cover these situations. The same
considerations must be relevant to other projects on Sourceforge.
=20
It was for me a surprising problem that could easily discourage
potential
shunit2 users.

Getting shunit2 working was a breeze.

Cheers, Mal.

	Hi Malcolm,
=09
	I have often had Firefox and Mozilla automatically gunzip the
file for me without asking or even telling me that it was doing so. I'm
guessing it was something like this that happened. Did you verify the
MD5 sum after downloading to that on the site? My guess is that they
didn't match.=20

		This works fine for me.  Could you show us the error
message that you

well.=20

		  tar tvzf shunit2-2.0.3.tgz
		  tar xvzf shunit2-2.0.3.tgz

		Or more verbosely:
	=09
		  gzip -d < shunit2-2.0.3.tgz | tar tvf -
		  gzip -d < shunit2-2.0.3.tgz | tar xvf -
	=09
		Or even more verbosely using explicit files.  This is
not preferred=20
		because it uncompresses the original file but is
illustrative of the
		component parts of the process.

		  gzip -d shunit2-2.0.3.tgz
		  tar tvf shunit2-2.0.3.tar
		  tar xvf shunit2-2.0.3.tar

		What error message are you seeing from any of the above
cases?=20
