Is .gz2 a typo? I've only ever seen .bz2 or .gz. I doubt
that's related, but it's a curiosity.
I have to deal with. They only extract (t or x) with the
command line "tar" command and crash both file-roller
and xarchive manager.
Do they run out of memory? That would be my guess. I don't
use GUI archive tools much at all, so I don't know if
there's an option to have it simply extract the compressed
tarball rather than try to decompress it first and then
extract it from the .tar file.
