Hi Platonides,
I succeeded in downloading the file. (After some crashes.)
As I'm sure you will need the hd-space, I want to use the checksum you provided, so I could tell you that the data actually arrived. As I'm fed up with using Windows for large files, I'll use an Ubuntu version from an USB-stick for checking the SHA256 checksum.
Which program did you use or would you suggest to get the checksum?
(Just so eventually I don't choose a program that crashes after the first 20 minutes, as so many download programs did on windows.)
Greetings Dieter
This is a basic sha256 checksum. The easiest would be to use sha256sum(1), for which you can:
a) run «sha256sum dieter-svgs-2016-03-02.tar.bz2» and verify that the output is identical to what I provided
b) run «sha256sum -c filename» with filename being a file containing that line (attaching one for your convenience).
Best regards
