I downloaded MySQL GUI binaries from http://www.mysql.com/downloads/gui-mysqlgui.html,
for installation under Redhat Linux v 8.0. I gunzipped the downloaded binaries, but could not untar
them:



$ tar -xvf mysqlgui-linux-semi-static-1.7.5.tar
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

tar -xvf mysqlgui-linux-static-1.7.5-1.tar
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

I am using the version of tar that comes bundled with Redhat linux v. 8.0:

$ tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25
