I am using UPX 1.24d. After downloading release 5 of the file
utilities I was surprised to find the entire batch of 21 executable
files could not be compressed.
"CantPackException: unsupported coff header."
If this is the direction that DJGPP 2.04 is taking, I hope that
cooperation will result in a quick resolution of this difficulty.
I also have on hand the release of October 11. Apparently I had
nor installed it after downloading. On checking, only the file,
"ls.exe" gave the error. The other 20 files compressed as usual.
Regards,
Frank
