Source downloads in .zip or .tar.gz seem to be incompatible with Unix unzip or tar

XMLWordPrintable

      Hello,

      If I attempt to download https://bitbucket.org/aardvarkcomputersolutions/zfsx/get/default.tar.gz (or end it in .zip)

      I get this on my FreeBSD 9 systems:

      $ gzip -d *.gz
      gzip: 1265ebd0144a.tar.gz: not in gzip format
      $ tar xvf default.tar.gz
      tar: Unrecognized archive format
      tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

      Same problem with .zip - unzip won't work with it.

      However, on a windows machine, a download of a .zip works, and opens up with the windows explorer.

      Am I just not understanding something, or is the packager making broken files?

      Thanks.
