I have ordered the GCC binaries from cs.uni-sb.de three times, and the archive has been contaminated (CRC error) every time. I DID set BINARY mode each time (I never have problems with atari.archive). The following files arrived each time: gcc-progs.zoo.aa gcc-progs.zoo.ab gcc-progs.zoo.ac gcc-progs.zoo.ad However, when I enter cat gcc-progs.zoo.* > gcc-progs.zoo on the Sun SparcStation, then type zoo -test gcc-progs There is always a CRC error. Is the archive OK at uni-sb? Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for any help.

There is always a CRC error. Is the archive OK at uni-sb? Am I doing something
wrong? Thank you for any help.
I've just tested the zoo archive with the gcc binaries:
so be asured it is ok!
(I did exactly the same as you did - 'cat'enate and 'zoo -test')
The files were tested after ftp-ing from the archive machine to another
vax, but that's a very short connection. Apparently yours were broken
during transmission.
Btw. last week a dredger destroyed a cable near our internet backbone
in Dortmund, perhaps it has eaten a few bits :-)
Greetings,
Wolfgang

Note: I'm not the one who's maintaining the archive, that's Edgar Roeder
who is also doing the ports of all the gnu stuff. Nice work, Edgar!
