Subject: Grass on Zaurus 

Platform: other
grass obtained from: Other (CDROM etc)
grass binary for platform: Downloaded precompiled Binaries
GRASS Version: 5.0pre4

Trying to install Grass GIS for my Sharp Zaurus using the Ipaq/Linux binary I
got from Baylor University 
http://www3.baylor.edu/grass/grass5/binary/ipaq_linux/
when I use Terminal and try the "ipkg install" command, here's what I get:

zcat: grass_5.0.0-20020507-1_arm.ipk: invalid compressed data--format violated
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

zcat: stdin: unexpected end of file
ipkg_install_file: ERROR unpacking control.tar.gz from grass_5.0.0-20020507-1_arm.ipk
Thank you in advance for any advice you can provide

This looks like a transmission error, because:
tar tvfz grass_5.0.0-20020507-1_arm.ipk 
-rw-rw-r-- root/root         4 2002-05-07 17:06:15 ./debian-binary
-rw-rw-r-- root/root    556483 2002-05-07 17:06:15 ./data.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r-- root/root       522 2002-05-07 17:06:15 ./control.tar.gz

is fine (at least on
http://grass.itc.it/grass5/binary/ipaq_linux/
)

You may try again from ITC.

it appears continuously, that Baylor is behind. Note that the
main site is:
 http://grass.itc.it

 
I have no idea how to convince Baylor to maintain their site better.
So far I am trying for 2 years now.

you have to install libz. That's a system library providing compression
algorithm.

No, your system :-) Install that lib and it will work.
Good night,

Markus,

	I got Grass GIS working.  I just needed to add libz.so.1 and
libncurses.so.5.  The other problem is that for some reason, on the Zaurus,
you can't unpack the archive libraries (the ones mentioned above) to their
default location.  Instead I had to do a "ipkg -d *some other location*
libncurses5".  Not sure why this was, it happened even when I was root.
	Anyhow, since there may be other Zaurus/Embedix people out there, it
would be great if you could have an aside or a note for Zaurus users.  No
need to reinvent the wheel.

	Let me know what you think.

Thanks.

Brian

Here:
 http://www.gzip.org/zlib/

Brian, are you sure that Zaurus is 100% identical to iPAQ?
I don't know anything about that, but just curious.
