Description Michael Schwendt 2000-11-04 16:34:32 UTC 
I've also posted this on the curl mailing-list and submitted a bug report.
Instead of downloading just that part of the file which hasn't been
downloaded already, curl starts downloading at the beginning, but appends
the data to the end of my local copy. When finished, the size of the
resulting file is longer than the file to be downloaded. As reference,
version 6.5.2 is good.
Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2000-11-05 16:12:55 UTC 
JFYI, curl 7.4.1 works fine again.
Comment 2 Tim Powers 2000-11-06 13:57:25 UTC 
Just out of curiosity, how are you getting this to work? Can you give examples
so that I can verify that it works?

Nevermind. I found your post to the curl mailing list and found the options you
are using. The new packages seem to work. I have put the new packages for you in
http://people.redhat.com/timp/RPMS and the SRPM in
http://people.redhat.com/timp/SRPMS .

I am pushing this through our QA process now.

The updated packages are now on the ftp site, and the errata annpouncement has
been released.

I am relolving this as "errata".
