New submission from Hasso Tepper <hasso at estpak.ee>:

https://www.mirbsd.org/MirOS/dist/hosted/kwalletcli/kwalletcli-1.00.tar.gz

$ tar -zxf kwalletcli-1.00.tar.gz
tar: Unrecognized archive format
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
$

Using g(un)zip(1) and tar(1) works:

$ gzip -cd kwalletcli-1.00.tar.gz | tar -xf -
$
