Hi. I just downloaded the 1_16_0_6 for my debian etch stable and it was a 20 min download on high speed Comcast cable. I downloaded this three time and it would not bunzip2 for me. It said the package is corrupt. Where can i get the last copy of sl?

Have you tried decompressing with a GUI archiver like file-roller or Ark? If that doesn't work, try bzip2recover.

If your ISP has a catch then you might have a corrupt version stuck there so eveytime you get a new download you get the same broken version. Try again after 24 hours or from some one elses connection if you can

because I have Comcast too, and I'm good. But it's still a good idea to try from someone else's computer, or at an Internet cafe if one is close enough.

I'm having a problem with Mandriva. It's now downloading it as a .tar.bz2.exe and telling me it's not a valid archive file - even when opening with ark.

I tried bunzip2 command and ark. Both complain that its a corrupt file. Im going to try again and if it fails, I'll try that bunzip2recover. Thanks guys.
