Try using the gzip utility to unzip the file first and then use tar.
To check that you downloaded the file correctly, run the program cksum on
the gz file. It should show this:
1472110475 227856 Sablot-0.50.tar.gz
The size of the file I downloaded was 227,856 bytes, smaller than what you
downloaded. Are you sure you downloaded the file in binary mode?

No. I have downloaded the source code (the 10th time) and it is
Sablot-0.50.tar.gz and it is 228,255 bytes. The error is always the
same. Any idea?
Thanks.
ps.
expat was downloaded untarred and installed without problems.
