Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:9 atagar]:

 following should fetch a lzma compressed descriptor from radia0...

 Descriptors are not available in the lzma encoding, because they are
 streamed:

 This is what I get:

 {{{

     for doc in server/authority status-vote/current/consensus; do
         echo "Accept-Encoding: $encoding"

 }}}

 I think that the consensus might not be available in lzma because it was
 cached on disk by a previous version of tor. Maybe wait an hour or two for
 a new consensus to arrive, and try lzma again?
