GtkAda 0.2.1 Beta file corrupt?

GtkAda 0.2.1 Beta file corrupt?

[Steve Whalen]

Has anyone been able to succesfully ungzip the GtkAda 0.2.1
beta tar/gzip file? I've downloaded it several times from the
host site (ada.eu.org/gtkada) and each one is identical to 
all the other copies.  All give me a message =

gzip -tv GtkAda-0.2.1.tgz
GtkAda-0.2.1.tgz:
gzip: GtkAda-0.2.1.tgz: invalid compressed data--format violated

This is the first time in just about forever that I've had any
trouble with either downloading or ungzipping a file so I'm 
assuming the file on ada.eu.org is corrupt. 

Has anyone successfully retrieved and ungzipped this file? Does
anyone know of another copy of this new version of this binding
anywhere on the net?  I'd like to know before I bother the 
authors of the binding that there really is a problem with
the file.

Yes, but not when downloaded with Netscape. Confusingly it works with lynx (my favorite browser under linux at home).
Don't know why.

That was the problem. Lynx downloaded it just fine. Thanks.

The GtkAda 0.2.1 file has now been reloaded at ada.eu.org 
and now even Netscape can download it correctly!

  The gzip tar file is at http://ada.eu.org/gtkada/

Thanks to all who helped.
