I'm having problems uncompressing most of the MacBinaried files
in the MacBSD alpha/2 release (ftp'd from cray-ymp.vt).
For most of the files, I try to remove the MacBinary formatting
using either MacBinary II+ or StuffIt Lite, and I wind up with
an error -39 (an EOF, I believe) and a .cpt archive Compact Pro
won't recognize. The offending files are:
for_testing/
booter.1.0.cpt.bin
tar_files/
bin.tar.cpt.bin
dev.tar.cpt.bin
sbin.tar.cpt.bin
usr.bin.tar.cpt.bin
usr.libexec.tar.cpt.bin
usr.sbin.tar.cpt.bin
usr.share.tar.cpt.bin
updates/
update.010294.cpt.bin
update.122193.cpt.bin
For some reason, the following files yielded healthy .cpt archives:
tar_files/
etc.tar.cpt.bin
usr.include.tar.cpt.bin
usr.lib.tar.cpt.bin
var.tar.cpt.bin
Please help, if possible.
