i had the exact same error as sean. the windows versions work perfect for me, however ANY of the linux versions just will not extract. i have tried all the commands here, and NONE extract them. and yes, i did check the md5 sum each time. they matched each time, yet produced that same error unfailingly, EVERY TIME.

i just think it is some sort of issue with ubuntu 8.04.1 64 bit.

i have tried downloading and installing ALL 64bit linux clients. NONE work. i do not know if it is due to corrupt download or not, but i have tried downloading each one SEVERAL times in a row, deleting the old one before i do.

the archive manager or whatever it is called always gives an error when trying to open the package. i have also tried to manually extract the contents for a manual install, and it still wont work using tar -xvzf command in the terminal window. i just do not get what is wrong. i understand that this is not ubuntu 7.10, but still, it SHOULD work if it works for 7.10.

has anyone else ran into a similar issue?
