I’ve downloaded the Ltc core wallet on Ubuntu 16.04, 32bit. When I try opening the folder, a message tells me ‘file type Gzip archive is not supported’. So I downloaded Xarchiver and tried again, with the same result. Thoughts, anybody? And yes: I’m a bit of a noob.

  • Did you try "Open With other Application" and select Xarchiver?

  • @EODCraft: That's what I first tried, yes. Downloaded Xarchiver, but it didn't do the trick. But, as indicated below, an automatic update solved the issue for me.

The file is surely gzip-compressed.



Uncompress it using command line:



craft@engine:~$ gunzip thefile.gz


Note: The original file will be removed and replaced by the uncompressed one.



If it says something like program not installed or unknown command, install it via:



craft@engine:~$ sudo apt-get install gzip

  • First thing I did when switching on the 'puter was install a service pack and after, the download opened as smooth as ever. So, the problem solved itself. But thanks for coming to the rescue anyhow!
