Mauro,

I think the archive is generated incorrectly. Could you take a look and 
see why? I shamefully admit I still am not sure where you did what to 
generate these ;)

Hi Oliver,

the tar archives at
http://linuxtv.org/downloads/dtv-scan-tables/
are broken.
xxd dtv-scan-tables-2013-04-12-495e59e.tar | less shows:

It seems like the git archive commandline somehow ended in the tarball.
E.g. the tarball should start with pax_global_header and not with "git
archive".

Regards
Till
