Hi, I downloaded the android source files from the download links provided. The files seem to be split tar.gz files. But they are named H5-v1.1.tar.gzaa, H5-v1.1.tar.gzab, H5-v1.1.tar.gzac, etc etc.
How do I go about uncompressing the tarball?

Did you try using 'cat' to merge the files back together into 'H5-v1.1.tar.gz'?

Yup, I get the error message that the output file is the same as the input file. Or something similar

Sorted it out. If anyone else is having the same issue, join all parts into a single file:
  1. $ cat * > H5-v1.1.tar.gz
Copy code


Then extract the tar.gz using the following:
  1. $ tar -xvf H5-v1.1.tar.gz
Copy code


DO NOT use the -z parameter as this is somehow not in gzip format

Glad you got it working, I should have gave the full command, my bad.
