Package: par2 Version: 0.4-9 Severity: normal $ par2 c /tmp/xx <2067 files @ 25MB each> par2cmdline version 0.4, Copyright (C) 2003 Peter Brian Clements. [... GNU header ...] Block count is too small. $
The solution is to try -b<SIZE>. In this case "-b1600" was still too small, but "-b3200" worked. I would like one of the following solutions, from most preferred to least: a) make par2 work with any blocksize. b) change default behavior: automatically increase the block size until a working size is found and use that (with a warning). Just doubling the size on each try should suffice. c) add a command line switch that allows par2 to change the behavior to the one in b). d) Expand "Block count is too small." to "Block count is too small. Try -b<$working_block_count>." Use a specific error code so scripts can detect this situation easier. e) Expand "Block count is too small." to "Block count is too small. Try -b<NUMBER> where NUMBER > $current_block_count." Use a specific error code so scripts can detect this situation easier. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages par2 depends on: ii libc6 2.7-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.2.2-4 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.2.2-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 par2 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
