bad source in the distro iso's

[Trever]

The problem is on our end, not the release(s), though I had convinced myself otherwise.  Sorry for my momentary loss of confidence in the releases!  And, I'm not sure my original post should have gone to this list.

What I can say is that whatever the heck it is we are doing wrong on our end is not obvious, but that's a different issue than the issue of knowing whether or not we can trust the release(s), which it seems we certainly can.  That's a relief.

With regard to 8.0 RC2&3, simply using the src/install.sh script for the src works without the errors and corrupted files.  Our script does the same thing, but obviously not quite.  Weird, but we'll figure it out.

Re 7.2 iso sources, based on the responses that no one has had this type of problem, I assume this is our end again.

Thanks all!

Trever
