Did you manage to actually extract the Sage source tarball? If this works, but not for some spkg, maybe the problem is with gzip or something. Or perhaps some spkg got in with an incompatible format (BSD has a slightly different tar format). Currently, my merger script extracts and repacks every spkg to ensure a more predictable format. Which file precisely fails to untar?
