Package: rzip
Version: 2.1-1
Severity: important

I had previously compressed a hard disk image with rzip with a command
simiar to the following:

rzip -k --best -o dir/disk.img.rz disk.img

This produced no error message.  I attempted to unzip using a command
similar to the following:

rzip -d -o dir/disk.img disk.img.rz

This produced the error:

Bad checksum 0x3b2bfb2a - expected 0x23e76800
Fatal error - exiting

Obviously I don't know if the error is in the compression, the uncompression
or the checksum calculation but something is clearly not right and it is
refusing to continue uncompressing the file.

I am not sure how relevant this is but the original disk image is a sparse
file of about 8Gb in size.  For both practical and condifentiality reasons
I can not send the file concerned but I could keep a copy for a while if
this would be helpful.
