Downloaded the beta2 for linux (LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz) and get this when attempting to extract: $ tar xvzf LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gztar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Skipping to next header tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors File size is correct: $ ls -hs LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz 164M LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz Unfortunately, there are no md5sums to check on the mirror: <http://mirrors.supportex.net/tdf/libreoffice/testing/3.3.0-beta2/deb/x86/>
You find the md5 (and other hashes) on the "origin" download server: http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/testing/3.3.0-beta2/deb/x86/LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz.mirrorlist
Here is my md5sum: $ md5sum LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz 77f5d740ad5a7ee6165e5913256219fd LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz
The correct one is 7f2f05d2b65471b63f37eaaae8264946 http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/testing/3.3.0-beta2/deb/x86/LibO_3.3.0_beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz.md5 You can use a Metalink client, a Torrent client or rsync to repair your download, if needed.
Would it be possible to put up an md5sum file similar to: http://download.openoffice.org/md5sums/3.2.1_md5sums.txt so that downloads can be checked?
I would generally recommend to use a hash from the download server for reference, and not from a mirror. The crypto hashes need to be made more present on the download page. Sorry that you had to look so hard, I hope we can improve on this soon!
