That was a version which I've never compiled, so it didn't need a make clean, however, I'm always forgetting about git gc :-( Thank you for reminding me. > > Therefore I've uploaded the archive to flubber, and there it should be > > accessible to you via something like: > > > > $ cp ~scolobb/hurd-zhengda.tar.bz2 ./ > > Try xz compression instead of bz2 -- that can make quite a difference :-) Wow! :-) Thank you!
