I would formulate it differently: There is a problem  with extracting the
tar with the tool Uwe used.

It is a simple path name length restriction. In the tar the path cannot be longer than

lyx-2.2.0beta2\3rdparty\boost\boost\numeric\conversion\detail\preprocessed\numeric_cast_traits_long_

These are 100 characters. All paths longer than 100 chars are truncated. Since Windows itself does not support tar, I use WinRar. Maybe this program has a bug or the tar specs have a limitation on Windows.

However, the Zip is only 3 MB larger than the Tar. so why not using Zip in future? I don't think that the 3 MB more are important.
