Archive-site: prep.ai.mit.edu [18.71.0.38] Archive-directory: /pub/gnu Reposted-by: emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti) GNU cpio 1.1 is now available on prep.ai.mit.edu [18.71.0.38] as pub/gnu/cpio-1.1.tar.Z. It fixes a byte-order problem for binary headers and adds automatic recognition of binary and ASCII cpio archives, and skipping of junk between files to try to recover from corrupted archives.
