Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.5.7 released
Does anyone else have problem extracting the .tar.gz file?
I got:
$ tar -xvzf textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errorsXarchiver (a Linux archiver) couldn’t open it either.

Mmmm, now I tried again, this time decompressing the .gz first (gzip -d textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz) and then extracting the .tar (tar -xvf textpattern-4.5.7.tar) and this time it worked. Likely an issue on my side.

What’s the md5 of your file, Julián? Mine here is 04fcfd6d5699537bf72aac48cc1139eb. I used tar -xvzf textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz without any problems.

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.5.7 released
gaekwad, to check the md5sum, I’ve had to download it again, because after decompressing it, I ended up only with the .tar file.
This is weird: the md5sum is fd174b6ebf8672771a2b6bdaf448d7d8, but this time I was able to tar -xvzf it flawlessly.
Not sure what is going on, as we are getting different md5sum for the file, but both of us were able to untar it… mmmmmm.

I tried again from a command line:
$ curl -O http://textpattern.com/file_download/98/textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz;md5 ./textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz

MD5 (./textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz) = fd174b6ebf8672771a2b6bdaf448d7d8So that does match this time. That is weird.

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.5.7 released
The file size & md5 changes depending on the user agent (browser):
$ ls -al *textpattern*.gz
-rw-r-----@ 1 pete admin 554343 23 Sep 14:08 chrome-textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 pete admin 553961 23 Sep 14:07 curl-textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--@ 1 pete admin 553961 23 Sep 14:08 firefox-textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--@ 1 pete admin 554344 23 Sep 14:07 safari-textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gzI’m guessing this is due to some metadata of sorts. The zip file is not affected:
$ ls -al *textpattern*.zip
-rw-r-----@ 1 pete admin 618715 23 Sep 14:13 chrome-textpattern-4.5.7.zip
-rw-r--r-- 1 pete admin 618715 23 Sep 14:13 curl-textpattern-4.5.7.zip
-rw-r--r--@ 1 pete admin 618715 23 Sep 14:13 firefox-textpattern-4.5.7.zip
-rw-r--r--@ 1 pete admin 618715 23 Sep 14:14 safari-textpattern-4.5.7.zipHuh.
Edit: …and here are my md5 details for completeness:
$ md5 *textpattern*

What the…
Confirmed, of sorts. If I download the .tar.gz in Chrome and Firefox on Windows, when I browse the archive with 7-Zip I get this structure in Chrome’s download (541kb):
textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz
---> textpattern-4.5.7.tar
------> textpattern-4.5.7
---------> textpattern-4.5.7
------------> files
------------> images
------------> ...Yet under Firefox (540kb):
textpattern-4.5.7.tar.gz
---> textpattern-4.5.7.tar
------> textpattern-4.5.7
---------> files
---------> images
---------> ...In other words, the Chrome download has an extra ‘phantom’ folder inside it for reasons I cannot explain. Baffling.
