 Hi,

 I had problems with 0.7.12 source tarballs available at download section.
Each .tar.gz is padded with zeros to the length that has a factor of 256.
This leads to tar reporting error when unpacking it, and also leads to
inability to open that .tar.gz with Midnight Commander (and thus gmc and very
likely Konqerror and kfm).

 Just curious, what software created them.

 Best regards,
