I've had a report that boost_1_31_0.tar.gz gets a checksum error halfway through unzipping.

Has anyone else had a problem? Or used the file successfully?

Works for me.

I get the problem. I am using WinXP SP2 with a current version of cygwin and bzip2 version: bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor. Version 1.0.2, 30-Dec-2001. but have replicated the error with WinRAR. Using bzip2 -tvv I get: boost_1_31_0.tar.bz2: [1: huff+mtf rt+rld] [2: huff+mtf rt+rld] [3: huff+mtf rt+rld] [4: huff+mtf rt+rld] [5: huff+mtf rt+rld] [6: huff+mtf rt+rld] [7: huff+mtf rt+rld] [8: huff+mtf rt+rld] [9: huff+mtf rt+rld] [10: huff+mtf rt+rld] [11: huff+mtf rt+rld] [12: huff+mtf rt+rld] [13: huff+mtf rt+rld] [14: huff+mtf rt+rld] [15: huff+mtf rt+rld] [16: huff+mtf rt+rld] [17: huff+mtf rt+rld] [18: huff+mtf rt+rld] [19: huff+mtf rt+rld] [20: huff+mtf rt+rld] [21: huff+mtf rt+rld] [22: huff+mtf rt+rld] [23: huff+mtf rt+rld] [24: huff+mtf rt+rld] [25: huff+mtf rt+rld] [26: huff+mtf rt+rld] [27: huff+mtf rt+rld] [28: huff+mtf rt+rld] [29: huff+mtf rt+rld] [30: huff+mtf rt+rld] [31: huff+mtf rt+rld] [32: huff+mtf rt+rld] [33: huff+mtf rt+rld] [34: huff+mtf file ends unexpectedly Is this a Windows problem?
