I have to apologise: For some reason I assumed that the ccp4-server (or
the people who package the suite) was located in York, which - as I have
been pointed out to - is not true. I would like to apologise for my
prejudice. Anyway I did not mean to blame anyone, my comment was meant as
a suggestion.

A fast and simple method to check whether the downloaded file is corrupt is
to calculate checksums, e.g. md5 or sha - corresponding programs should be
available on most Unix/ Linux systems. It depends, however, on York
calculating the checksum and putting it next to the actual archive for
downloading.

Dear Michael,
How did you do the download? I have just downloaded this file using the old
fashioned command line ftp method, and it worked fine. I expect that there
has been an error somewhere in the transmission.
If you fetch the file from:
ftp ftp.ccp4.ac.uk
cd ccp4/6.1
get ccp4-6.1.0-core-src.tar.gz
you should find that everything is fine. If not, please get in touch
directly with the helpdesk at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and we will try to work out
what is happening.
Thanks & best wishes,
Graeme

Subject: [ccp4bb] ccp4-6.1.0-core-src.tar.gz TAR error
Dear Charles,
to your information:
I just downloaded the Version 6.1 source tar file to my x86_64 Linux box
(SuSE 10.2, AMD64) and got the following tar error message.
All other (LINUX-386 and both COOCH and PHASER) tar files were fine!!
---> SNIP
...
ccp4-6.1.0/lib/data/monomers/ps.resource
ccp4-6.1.0/lib/data/monomers/full_names.list
ccp4-6.1.0/lib/data/monomers/mon_lib_ind.cif
ccp4-6.1.0/lib/data/monomers/mon_lib_ind2.cif
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
---> SNIP
May be a corrupt file?
Regards
Michael
