ERROR: general (de)compression error in srep

Hello
there is something wrong during the pass2 (recheck)
it's more or less like a CRC error in memory during rebuild dedup
You can try another version of srep (3.2 o the 4)
Or you can try to change config:

packcmd = "srep.exe" -hash- {options} InFile OutFile

to

packcmd = "srep.exe" -hash=vmac {options} InFile OutFile

it will add some crc check in the srep file.
In some case it work with a slighty lower ratio.
