failed to install tomcat6 with error expanding zip (Negative seek offset)

Tried several times, and cleaned but unable to install tomcat6 port on a fresh system. Fails with:

BUILD FAILED

Hardly anything to go on here. At least provide:

Xcode version Mac OS X version full output of 'sudo port -d install tomcat6'

That comment got mangled... insert commas as needed. :(

Sorry, new to submitting tickets... OS up to date and XCode downloaded today. So weird, have installed this port (6.0.18) successfully before not to long ago on an identical machine (hardware-wise).

Works for me with 10.5.7 and xcode 3.1.2. More details from the build failure would be helpful, you'll probably have to dig around and find them, or maybe even re-do part of the build (by hand) to get more info.

tomcat6 builds fine at this point, closing ticket.
