I have been trying to get a tarball of transcode to compile on my SUSE 9.2 system. Every pkg I have d/l'd from the sites listed on the Transcode Wiki page:
http://www.transcoding.org/cgi-bin/transcode
are unopenable.
I tested it out for you (I usually compile transcode from CVS). It is really strange- the package wouldn't open is Ark or KArchiver but works fine with mc and "tar -xzvf".
Hi Charles, Thanks for the help. MC works here too. I agree very very weird indeed. Can anyone else shed any light on why a gzipped tarball is "non-existant" in Konqi running as FileManager (root)?? I d/l'd it in XP and got 'StuffIt' to open it, then I moved the extracted folder to SUSE 9.2. Considering how some people regard transcode I wonder if there is a tad of skulldugery going on; imagine if some particular zip files were unopenable in the M$ Windows world!!! Cry CONSPIRACY!
