I downloaded 2.3.1 Rv 2 from default Amsterdam Mirror
After 100% download completion, NOD32 Version 2.7 took 20 Minutes to scan before it allowed me to touch it.
A subsequent scan (launched via context menu) took 997 Seconds, and log includes
OpenOffice_Portable_2.3.1_Rev_2_en-us.paf.exe »NSIS »testtar.tar »TAR - archive damaged.
I downloaded from Kent (UK) Mirror with the same delays and complaints.
Binary comparison by AptDiff found no differences between the two downloads.
I executed this installer. No errors were reported. I launched both "Writer Portable" and "Calc Portable" without apparent fault - but I would like assurance it is not broken before I risk any valuable documents with it.
I am using Windows XP with SP2, and Firefox 2.0.0.11
1. Is the tar broken, or can I expect it to work ?
2. If ESET NOD32 is WRONG when it says the TAR is damaged, it might help your other users if their mistake can be corrected, OR IF you can tweak the order of packing etc or whatever it is that causes their mistake.
3. I decided to download the earlier 2.3.1 prior to Rv 2 BUT CANNOT FIND WHERE IT IS. If you could give me a link for this earlier version I will try that and follow up with the small "Rv 2" patch file.
