Yup, I just tested this using Python 3.4 & and its tarfile module,
and it does not report the extra PaxHeaders.### folders.
Could you add an explicit note regarding this next to your download
links (possibly at
'http://eric-ide.python-projects.org/eric-download.html')?
I use .tar.gz files by default usually (as they are smaller than
their .zip counterparts), and the problem takes a while to
understand/debug having to work through some mysterious Python error
traceback. All that really gave me a feeling of 'baaah... what is this
sh*t... why am I wasting my time with this... and I just want to install
an editor...'. :-(

P.S.
Haven't given up yet. ;-)
