Arc Problems.
Here's the problem, arc source compiles successfully on our
Pyramid 98x (osx operating system), and arc claims to successfully
archive files. But when you try to extract them (on the Pyramid and on
my pc) arc says that the CRC check fails. The following is
what is printed on extraction of Makefile from a test arc.
Extracting file: Makefile
WARNING: File Makefile fails CRC check
Upon inspection of the extracted file, I find that the tail is missing,
and when executing arc v test.arc, the following is printed:
Name Length Stowage SF Size now Date Time CRC
============ ======== ======== ==== ======== ========= ====== ====
Makefile 1778712576 Crunched 101% 1610743808 14 $Header: arclst.c,

Here's an ls -l of Makefile
-rw-r--r-- 1 holly 1386 Jul 28 00:22 Makefile
So you can see that it isn't all that big.
Does anybody out there have arc running on Pyramid? Could I have
a copy? Or could you tell me how to fix the source so that it works on
Pyramid.
Alternatively, does anybody have a public domain version of uncompress
that will run on my pc?
Thanks,
Joe
