I have a package that was created on a SCO 7.1.1 system using the
following commands inside my makefile:
rm -rf files
rm -f files.pkg.Z
pkgmk -d `pwd` files
pkgtrans -s `pwd` files.pkg files
compress -f files.pkg
I then login to the OpenUnix 8.0.0 system and perform the following
steps:
#
#cd /tmp
# (ftp'd to SCO 7.1.1 system to get the package file files.pkg.Z)
#uncompress files.pkg.Z
#pkgadd -d files.pkg all

Why do I get these errors?
It appears that the missing bytes correspond to the number of lines in
each file.
How do I fix this?
Thanks!
