Hi Daniel, I had the same problem with Ubuntu. the problem was with the GWT package buggy download, it seems that a firefox download is some how defected and I forced the tar.bz2 to be opened partially. Until Google will feature it out, I solve this issue buy using wget to download the framework,
Command line: wget http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/files/gwt-linux-1.5.3.tar.bz2 tar jxf http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/files/gwt-linux-1.5.3.tar.bz2 Don't forget to setup your environment to point the new gwt- linux-1.5.3 GWT release. Enjoy, Moshe Beeri.
