Hi!

A strange error, forget to report previously:
unzip32.exe cannot unpack libc sources set (djlsr203.zip),
unzip32.exe - from simtel.net, supplied with djgpp repository.

It fails to create a subdirectory with a name "dos",
at any subdirectory level. It reports

        checkdir error:  src/libc/dos exists but is not directory
                         unable to process ...

but there was no  libc/dos  (file or directory) on the disk in fact.
Then I create the directory manually and repeat unzip:

        checkdir error:  src/libc/dos/dos exists but is not directory
                         unable to process src/libc/dos/dos/bdos.txh.
        checkdir error:  src/libc/dos/dos exists but is not directory
                         unable to process src/libc/dos/dos/bdosptr.S.
        ...
So the hint was repeated.

Since unzip32.exe was compiled with DJGPP
I assume it is a djpgg/libc error...

        Leonid.
