Title: Problem decompressing SFML 1.6 tar in Ubuntu 10.04
Post by: Bravepower on May 18, 2010, 02:44:39 am

I get an error when trying to decompress the SFML 1.6 C++ tar file from SourceForge. I've tried downloading it several times from different mirrors and I always have the same error. The file I'm downloading is 12.3 MB, not the listed 12.9 MB. Here's the command line output:

gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

Is the hosted file corrupt or am I repeatedly having download errors?

Hmm, that's strange. I'm still having the same problem. Any solutions?

I had the same problem with 1.6, but 2.0 extracted fine for me
