Tar problems
I've had these problems even with 0.30.0 release...
I downloaded the latest subversion tar ball 0.31.0.tar.gz.
Ftp'd in binary format to the unix box running Solaris 8 (Ultra-2).
I keep getting this directory checksum error.
x subversion-0.31.0/subversion/bindings/java/javahl/src/org/tigris, 0 bytes,
0 tape blocks
x
subversion-0.31.0/subversion/bindings/java/javahl/src/org/tigris/subversion,
0 bytes, 0 tape blocks
x
subversion-0.31.0/subversion/bindings/java/javahl/src/org/tigris/subversion/
javahl, 0 bytes, 0 tape blocks
x
subversion-0.31.0/subversion/bindings/java/javahl/src/org/tigris/subversion/
javahl/Test, 0 bytes, 0 tape blocks
tar: directory checksum error
The files do exist, as I can tell, from WinZip. I tried it on two different
Solaris boxes, same issue. There is probably another way, unzip on the PC
and move everything to the unix box. Ftp doesn't allow me to move all the
files and directories at once... I can do it by mounting the unix directory
to my PC using samba. But, this shouldn't happen, right? Something I'm
messing up?
Thanks

Try using GNU tar, which is available as a Solaris package from
http://www.sunfreeware.com/.
Solaris tar has some very serious bugs^Wlimitations, especially with long path
names, which tend to occur quite frequently with java applications.

I got these errors as well (only on Solaris, I believe). Just use the -i
flag on tar which ignores directory checksum errors, and it all works fine.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe there are incompatibilities between
Sun's tar and GNU tar. I'd make sure you are using the GNU version.
