Yes, your first huge mistake is that you don't show us the complete unmodified error message. Run the "file" command on the darkice-0.13.1.tar.gz file to verify that it is a gzip'ped tar file actually. Some browsers unzip gzip'ped files after download (e.g. Mozilla) without changing the file name. In that case, the tar file is uncompressed already and you would need to drop the 'z' option from tar xfz. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/G8pi0iMVcrivHFQRAla6AJ45BDVzaM9EDoYcq1A8obWWRdIS7wCcDJNL QvBzocOmPPF+ybYRu8w65Og= =V5eO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
