I see some errors like:

error: inflate: data stream error (incorrect header check)
error: File 5980a044bcdb4c1d1a8b1ecff986fa63719519b3
(http://lvk.cs.msu.su/~lasaine/timesync/pps-tools.git/objects/59/80a044bcdb4c1d1a8b1ecff986fa63719519b3)
corrupt

But the files appear to arrive OK.

So I can rebuild nbtpd with the new timepps.h header file.

What about the Kconfig changes?


Thanks for your input!
(LinuxPPS can mature more quickly now...!)

Kind regards,
