If I'm right and "-xvf" doesn't preserve permissions, you won't be able to upgrade or reinstall anything at all. I'm not _absolutely_ _sure_ this is the reason of the particular failure you're reporting, but I think you should definitely try again after unpacking the tarball with "-xpvf"...
--preserve-permissions --same-permissions -p When `tar' is extracting an archive, it normally subtracts the users' umask from the permissions specified in the archive and uses that number as the permissions to create the destination file. Specifying this option instructs `tar' that it should use the permissions directly from the archive. *Note Writing::.
