Hi All,

In the process of setting up a new DJGPP environment for some research
I'm doing, I ran across this small packaging bug:

beta/v2gnu/gdb64b.zip contains a truncated info/dir file, which if you
use the "-o" overwrite option of unzip32.exe will wipe out the info/
dir provided in the beta/v2/djdev204.zip file.  The truncated info/dir
file contains menu entries only for the gdb info files in that zip
package.

Which probably also means I shouldn't blindly use "-o" either ... :)

Thanks to all of you for all these years of keeping DJGPP alive.  Bye
for now.

Peter
