I built busybox-1.6.0 and selected all the options for tar. When I use tar to extract File-4.17.tar.gz or Perl-5.8.8.tar.bz2 I get the following error:

tar -xzf file-4.17.tar.gz
tar: corrupted octal value in tar header

It doesn't extract anything.



When I use tar to extract linux-2.6.21.3.tar.bz2 it gives an error but successfully extracts everything...

tar -xjf linux-2.6.21.3.tar.bz2
tar: warning: skipping header 'g'
