Subject: IZarc problem extracting emacs-24.2.tar.xz
Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:34:20 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <v8ud2wpdp2r.fsf@mailinator.com> (raw)

Windows 7x64 with lots of memory, HD, blah blah.

After I used IZarc to extract emacs-24.2 to disk, I noticed that some
files were missing. For instance, .../etc/{DOC,DOC-X} were not
extracted. The missing files caused problems when using Emacs.

The solution was to use 7Zip to extract the files which worked fine. Why
IZarc had troubles is a mystery to me but rather than figure it out I
uninstalled it.  FYI to future Emacsiens with this problem.
