I needed to install the zlib php extension before this module would work. I guess it's fetching a compressed copy of the version info?

I did a manual fetch from the web UI and it complained that gzinflate() wasn't defined. Perhaps a function_exists() call would allow for a friendlier error message, as well as a line in the README?

Works a treat now though. Thanks for such a useful module :-)

yes, that's exactly what's going on. thanks for the detailed report. turns out you just helped solve the mystery of an older issue -- http://drupal.org/node/123100. that used to have a vague title, so i don't fault you for submitting another issue. however, since that's the oldest one, i'm marking this issue as the duplicate. let's just move discussion about resolving this back into #123100.
