Actually, untarring a .deb is not expected to work at all. But the package is broken indeed: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/org/ftp.debian.org/ftp/pool/main/d/dia$ ar p dia-common_0.94.0-7sarge3_all.deb data.tar.gz|zcat > /dev/null zcat: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error [EMAIL PROTECTED]/org/ftp.debian.org/ftp/pool/main/d/dia$ So something is corrupted there (at least the changelog according to the reporter), and IMHO the package should be rebuilt -- and the original build environment checked. On a sidenote, it's curious that dak didn't check for this. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
