Shank 2 for Linux

[Nanthiel]

Hello!

I downloaded Shank 2 from the Humble Bundle 7 page, and I must be crazy or something, but I can't find an actual executable for Shank 2 in my .tar.gz download. There's just library files and resources. How do I run it?

Thank you, Nanthiel

Hey Nanthiel!

I have the same problem here!

i've extracted the program in a terminal and show me this:
________________________________________________

Shank 2/data/movies/05_int_000.ogv

The hash of md5sum seems perfect:

pedrohenrique@PH-Desktop:~/Downloads/Humble Bundle 7$ md5sum shank2-linux-b8.tar.gz && cat shank2md5
36ac38385df6fc2743b9e94266ac7e35 shank2-linux-b8.tar.gz
36ac38385df6fc2743b9e94266ac7e35

I dont know what i have to do

PS: sorry my poor english.

I have exactly the same problem. It seems like the archive is corrupted. It is not a download issue, the file as present on the servers is corrupted so it doesn't matter how many times you check it or download it or with which application.

As with the previous persons, I have correct md5sums but the file is still corrupted and can't be extracted. I found no way to recover or repair the archive so please fix this as Soon as possible because we payed to play this game.

Thanks.

Same problem here

GZIP: 1.5-1.1

For the original poster: Can you please change the title of this into something like "Can't extract archive Shank 2 for Linux" so that more people can easier identify it? I think there will be a lot of comments here Soon... I hope a fix will also come Soon. I actually bought the Indie Bundle for this game only.

By the way, did you get the file from torrents or direct download? I've downloaded the torrent, trying the direct download now...

Shank extract archive issue and no apparent executable here too (Mint 14 64bit).

[patkoscsaba]

I can confirm that the directly downloaded file has the same problem.

Confirmed on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 64bit.

Neither the direct download nor the bittorrent one can be extracted. The md5sum for both downloads of shank2-linux-b8.tar.gz is "36ac38385df6fc2743b9e94266ac7e35":

> md5sum shank2-linux-b8.tar.gz 
36ac38385df6fc2743b9e94266ac7e35  shank2-linux-b8.tar.gz

Console output of tar:

> tar -xzf shank2-linux-b8.tar.gz 

gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
