portsnap messages: Error opening archive: Invalid GZip header

[deleted]

I had these problems on -CURRENT. portsnap showed me the error message

Code:

Error opening archive: Invalid GZip header

And found the solution:

After patching bsdtar (csup, make all install in bsdtar directory), the problem disappeared.
