When I attempt to uncompress bz2 files I get a Invalid Parameter / I/O Error. Tar works with the j option however. I re-installed the bunzip2 packages from the server but it didn't resolve the problem. Here are a few commands demonstrating the problem: $ bunzip2 xwinclip-Test06.exe.bz2 bunzip2: I/O or other error, bailing out. Possible reason follows. bunzip2: Invalid argument Input file = xwinclip-Test06.exe.bz2, output file = xwinclip-Test06.exe bunzip2: Deleting output file xwinclip-Test06.exe, if it exists. $ tar cjf test.tar.bz2 GNUstep $ tar tvjf test.tar.bz2 | more drwxrwxrwx 1344/None 0 2002-10-21 13:43:04 GNUstep/ drwxrwxrwx 1344/None 0 2002-10-21 13:43:04 GNUstep/.AppInfo/ drwxrwxrwx 1344/None 0 2002-10-21 13:43:11 GNUstep/Defaults/ -rw------- 1344/None 4023 2002-10-21 13:43:09 GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker -rw------- 1344/None 267 2002-10-21 13:43:09 GNUstep/Defaults/WMGLOBAL [...] JohnF AT DEV029 ~ $ bunzip2 test.tar.bz2 bunzip2: I/O or other error, bailing out.
