Question
Arch Linux zoom download gets truncated
The Arch Linux tarball file downloads. However the build or just tar xJf fails with an “unexpected EOF in archive”.
Here is example output of the build and the use of tar command.

I tried using the virtual assistance for help but only confused it. Not sure how to request a fix to the Arch Linux tarbarl.
