Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-15 12:36:22] philip@php.net Oops, reclassify as a phpweb problem as phpdoc doesn't touch this. Extracting .bz for windows is already documented as a faq, now the .tar.gz files need to be created. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-15 12:26:21] philip@php.net <evilgrin>muahahahaha</evilgrin> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-10 18:40:36] bvdb at asa dot de So the filthy bz2 conspiracy continues - almost 4 month passed and the tar.gz files are still not available... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-01 10:02:55] mfischer@php.net It's a feature request. Let's close it when it has been done, not before. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-01 09:54:20] mk@php.net I think there are a lot of links to programs for Windows which extract bzip2. And since we will (according to Simone's comment) switch to .zip and tar.gz/.bz2, I close this bug. IMHO it is no real "bug", since everyone is able to extract the files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
