Hi,
my Boost CVS working directory used to be rooted at :pserver:anonymous@boost-consulting.com:/boost. However, for some time I didn't get any updates any more. Since it's not plausible that there were no check-ins in the last week I checked out the boost directory from SourceForge. And indeed, there are many differences between the two working directories.
For instance: After `cvs up' I have revision 1.4 of boost/algorithm/string/classification.hpp in the working directory rooted at boost-consulting and its status is up-to-date according to `cvs stat' (no sticky tag or date). But in the working directory rooted at sourceforge there's revision 1.5. `cvs log' says it was checked in on 2004-07-30.
Even if the CVS at boost-consulting is mirrored only once a day, revision 1.5 of boost/algorithm/string/classification.hpp should be in the repository by now. Do others experience the same problem?
Yes. The problem is that the CVS tarball being supplied by SF is corrupted. I have been getting this error from my cron job for about 2 weeks: bunzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly; perhaps it is corrupted? *Possible* reason follows. bunzip2: Undefined error: 0 Input file = boost-cvsroot.tar.bz2, output file = (stdout) It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted. You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files. You can use the `bzip2recover' program to *attempt* to recover data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
