trouble unzipping a package
Hello Unix gurus,
I have been studying to install packages in solaris 10 but I can't seem to move forward. I downloaded a test package online ( gdb-6.8-sol10-sparc-local.gz ) and ftp to my home in solaris 10. I gave this command
gunzip gdb-6.8-sol10-sparc-local.gz
and this is what i keep getting back
gunzip: gdb-6.8-sol10-sparc-local.gz: invalid compressed data--crc error
Can anyone please help me with this? What am I doing wrong?
Thank you all.
