It is also confusing to user: OF COURSE there is no GZ file, it's a RPM...

It says the truth - it doesn't see expected gzip signature inside RPM file.

Current svn is updated to handle bz2 data too:

+config FEATURE_RPM_BZ2
+       bool "Enable handling of rpms with bzip2-compressed data inside"
+       default n
+       depends on RPM
+       help
+         Enable handling of rpms with bzip2-compressed data inside.

Seems to work for me. Nikolay plase test if you can.
