    python-2.3.2 source code checksum error

    downaloded from ftp.python.org and failed to unzip the files:

    x
    Python-2.3.1/Mac/OSXResources/app/Resources/English.lproj/Documentation/ide/index.html,
    9909 bytes, 20 tape blocks
    x
    Python-2.3.1/Mac/OSXResources/app/Resources/English.lproj/Documentation/ide/IDE.gif,
    10249 bytes, 21 tape blocks
    tar: directory checksum error

    tried other versions (python) and they all failed in the same way ...

    i also downlaoded other gnu software from ftp.gnu.org and they were fine with no
    problem at all ...

    does anyone have such problem too?

      "It has been reported that untarring the source tarball using
      Solaris tar can fail. This is caused by some pathnames being too
      long for Solaris tar to handle. Using GNU tar should allow for
      untarring on Solaris. "

      (http://www.python.org/2.3/bugs.html)

      It's not Solaris, but these pathnames do look pretty long. Try GNU tar.
