Broken snapshot archives: msg#00166

Subject: Broken snapshot archives

Hello!

Some recent GHC snapshot files seem to be broken.
For example with

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/current/dist/ghc-6.5.20060927-i386-unknown-linux.tar.bz2
I get:
$ tar jxf ghc-6.5.20060927-i386-unknown-linux.tar.bz2

bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;
perhaps it is corrupted? *Possible* reason follows.
bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)

It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become
corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such
files.

You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to
recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.

tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Best regards
Tomasz
