What's the file size? Zero?

Just downloaded the file from http://soft.pmad.net/files/k8055/ Clicked
(Gnome desktop) and File Roller opened it right up. I then extracted
it - 6.1MB (6383712 bytes) file.

Why are you trying to compile it? There is a file-roller package in
Debian. 'apt-cache search tbz' would have found it for you. Just install
it with 'apt-get install file-roller'.
However, file-roller is just a pointy-clicky front-end for the various
command-line compression/decompression programs. Bunzip2 will unpack .tbz
files. It is in the bzip2 package.

Thanks very much.

No GUI can ever do "everything". It is trivial enough to learn how to use
system utilities from the shell prompt. If you don't do that you will
surely have problems recovering from a situation where your GUI fails to
load.

Henk,
Listen to Dave here, this is good advise he's given.

I'm pretty sure the hyphen is depreciated.
tar xvjf <filename>
Henk,
x = extract
v = verbose
j = bzip2 file extraction support (since it's a .tbz file)
f = filename to extract

Perhaps it is, but it still works. Old habits die hard.
Do you feel better for nitpicking the (correct) answer that I gave to the
question?

No, I feel indifferent... but the question is do *you* feel better?

Do I feel better for having done *what*? I'm not the one doing the
nitpicking.

Ahhh. Well, that helps to explain things a little.

Oh, I dunno... being an asshat?... or you nitpicking because I simply
stated that the hyphen is depreciated? I didn't say you were right or
wrong -- I was just stating a fact.

What does it explain?... that I enjoy playing Windows-based games
without wanting to deal with issues that arise when new games are
released or patched?

You were nitpicking, and I'm not the one being an "asshat" here.

So, posting to Usenet is a "Windows-based game"? Damn, I didn't realize
that.

... and you're not nitpicking? :-)

No. The difference is that your entry into this thread was based
*entirely* on a nitpick about tar syntax (not to mention 3 weeks after the
fact), and provided no additional useful information whatsoever. My
comment above was to point out that you seem to justify using Windows for
game-playing, but that this is Usenet.
Run along now, and go update your viruses, or something.

You way too much time on your hands. :-)

Actually, sorry to join the nitpick, not to mention jump in late, but
you're wrong. I've been using tar for over a decade, and to be honest,
it didn't occur to me that a hyphen was even supported, let along
depreciated.
And if it is depreciated, than it's good that he brought attention to
it; we wouldn't want to be encouraging bad ideas in the noobs.
So get over it.

You've been using tar for over a decade, and never looked at the man page,
eh? The one where it shows the hyphen? Yeah. N00b.

Long ago.

It's no use. His life revolves around arguing on usenet. Nearly all of
his posts supports this fact.

heh Either that or I'm just so used to the command that I never
noticed. Usually the only time I look at the man page is for the more
esoteric options...
Interesting, though, how you just sweep over the other point I made...
It's okay. You've got an ego to maintain. We understand.

True, there's at least one on every group... I know someone on another
news server he'd get along with just fine. Heck. Maybe they're one
and the same anyhow. heh

For feature the command for extracting files with the tar,tar.gz and
tar.bzp and bz2 extensions is tar -zxvf <file Name> ofcourse remember
to replace the words file name with the name of the archive you wish to
manipulate.
Thanks ,

If bzip compressed "tar -xjvf <file>"

Sorry about not replying to OP but it wasn't available:
$ sudo apt-get install bzip2
To decompress foo.tbz
$ tar xjvf foo.tbz -C ~/install-from-src/
