Package: rzip Version: 2.1-1 Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
rzip returns a confusing error message when the user attempts to compress a directory. It also leaves behind a small .rz file, on which runzip will hang. $ mkdir foo $ rzip foo Failed to map buffer in rzip_fd Fatal error - exiting $ ls foo/ foo.rz bzip2 handles this much more gracefully: $ bzip2 foo bzip2: Input file foo is a directory. - -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages rzip depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries rzip recommends no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFF2xGIAud/2YgchcQRAiHxAJsFBBh6rN+g7JfHkZZ4KwuGHAoY8ACcDehH GvpQh6iE2SpLGCXFU2zyLGw= =L2T7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
