Hi All,
This file
betterbird-140.2.0.9.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.xz
Extracts just fine with File Roller (I am writing
you on the extracted file).
But I can't seem to get the syntax correct with tar,
"x" or "j". Supposedly it is an "x":

$ tar xjvf /home/CDs/Linux/Thunderbird/betterbird-140.2.0.9.en-US.linux-
x86_64.tar.xz
bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file.
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
$ tar xzvf /home/CDs/Linux/Thunderbird/betterbird-140.2.0.9.en-US.linux-
x86_64.tar.xz
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks,
-T
oooops, forgot to include:
tar-1.35-4.fc41.x86_64
file-roller-44.5-1.fc41.x86_64
