"Invalid gzip magic" error

Greetings,

 

I would greatly appreciate if anybody could help me with this:

I am getting "Invalid gzip magic" error from busybox rpm utility on
ARM9.

So there is busybox rpm inflate errors due to the above.

 

PRM was rolled up on 32-bit 0x86 Open SUSE 10.2 using standard rpmbuild
utility that came with OpenSuse. 

and standard GNU tar (1.15.1) & gzip (1.3.5)  for the source tarball and
then I attemptedto install it on ARM9 

with busybox rpm utility.

 

Here is a very simple .spec file (edited for brevity):

 

************************************************************************
**************

...standard header here...

ExclusiveArch: arm

Exclusiveos: linux

 

Source: %{name}-%{version}.tar.gz

Buildroot: /tmp/product-build-root

 

...

%prep

%setup -n %{name}-%{version}

 

%install

install -m777 -d $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/mnt

install -m777 -d $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/mnt/flash

install -m777   file1 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/mnt/flash/file1

install -m777   file2 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/mnt/flash/file2

install -m777   file3 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/mnt/flash/file3

 

%clean

[ "$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" != "/" ] && rm -rf "$RPM_BUILD_ROOT"

 

%post

echo "%{name}-%{version} successfully installed."

 

%files

%defattr(777,root,root)

/mnt/flash/file1

/mnt/flash/file2

/mnt/flash/file3

************************************************************************
*****************

 

RPM was build with :

rpmbuild -bb -target arm file.spec

 

If I put source.tar.gz file on the ARM9  I can untar and gunzip it just
fine.

 

Tried different versions of busybox on ARM9 up to (1.6.0) - to no avail.

 

What am I missing?
