Problem with rz and sz in Slack64 minicom packages


Greetings all. There is a problem with both the Slackware64-13 and Slackware64-current minicom-2.1-x86_64-3 package. The two files /usr/bin/lsz and /usr/bin/lrz contained in the package are 0 byte files, thus preventing the use of sz and rz. Now I realize that not many people use sz and rz anymore for transferring files, but some of us Slackware old timers (like me) still do. Also, the minicom-2.1-i486-2.txz package in non-64bit slackware-current is fine. Thanks.
