Re: [bug] cygwin-1.5.6-1: corruption on tar | bzip2 > file.tar.bz2


After installing cygwin-1.5.6-1 files created with
tar -c <names> | bzip2 > file.tar.bz2
were corrupted (bzip2 reports CRC cheking error when trying to unpack).
With cygwin-1.5.6-1 such command works as expected.

I am very sorry, I made a missprint. Everything worked fine with previous version cygwin-1.5.5-1

An example:


bash-2.05b$ tar -c work | bzip2 > work.tar.bz2
bash-2.05b$ bzip2 -t work.tar.bz2
bzip2: work.tar.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data

You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.

bash-2.05b$ rm work.tar.bz2
bash-2.05b$ tar -cf - work | bzip2 > work.tar.bz2
bash-2.05b$ bzip2 -t work.tar.bz2
bzip2: work.tar.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data

You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
