First an introduction - rst2pdf is a utility which converts documents
in ReStructuredText (RST) format into PDF format. I need this package
as I contribute to the newsletter of Geany, a text editor/IDE packaged
in Frugalware.

Now the details of my problem -

rst2pdf is hosted on GoogleCode so I'm trying to use the GoogleCode.sh
functions.

I have attached a copy of my FrugalBuild but its contents are:

# Compiling Time: 0 SBU
# Maintainer: insert_name_here <name@domain>

pkgname=rst2pdf
pkgver=0.16
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Tool for transforming reStructuredText to PDF using ReportLab"
depends=('reportlab')
groups=('apps-extra')
archs=('i686' 'x86_64')
Finclude googlecode
sha1sums=('8148c7dc0407e2352bbb6016585bc4f1941e1225')


Initially makepkg goes well but it soon gives an error that the
downloaded source file is not a valid tar.gz file. If I download it
manually I can easily extract it and confirm that it IS a valid tar.gz
file.

Am I doing something wrong here in the FB? I can't see what I need to
do to fix the problem.
