The source tarballs are fine. Harrumph. I tried the same thing: cat bin.?? | zcat | tar tvf - and it worked just fine (i.e. I saw no error messages though I did not check the pipeline return status). The problem seems to be in the installation process itself. It claimed the extraction failed but gave no reason. Is the error output from the extraction commands stored anyplace during the installation process? (Someplace that I could look at after the failure?)
