Renaming the file will not help. You need to unpack it, rename the dir, and then recreate the tarball. # tar zxfv Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000-pre1.tar.gz # mv Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000-pre1 Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000 # tar zcfv Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000-pre1.tar.gz Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000-pre1 Otherwise it'll complain about not being able to chdir's after it unpacks Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000.tar.gz as Mail-SpamAssassin-3.000000-pre1.
