Bug #1541
closed
The file unpacks OK here on DragonFly 2.2.
The MD5 digest of the file I used for testing is

I get the same thing. I ktrace'd it and it looks like bsdtar
is trying to examine the gzip header itself... and clearly
making a mistake.
If I gunzip | gzip > x.tar.gz and then tar tvzpf x.tar.gz, that
works, so basic recognition of gzip files is working properly in
tar. It just doesn't recognize THAT particular gzip file.
So it must be a bug in libarchive somewhere, or perhaps it simply
does not properly recognize gzip formats?

bsdtar 2.7.1/libarchive 2.7.1 works for me on linux. We have 2.7.0 on DragonFly.
Good catch, bsdtar 2.7.1 changelog contains this line as well amongst
others: "Handle gzip files signed with OpenBSD "gzsig" program." That's
probably it.
Fixed with libarchive-2.7.1 import.
