[Kstars-devel] Could not install USNO NOMAD

[JeaMY Lee]

hello,

fresh USNO-download with kstars ends in:

"QFile::at: Cannot set file position -2121848832"

the packed file with the "USNO-NOMAD-1e8.dat" was downloaded fully and
without errors from the server and stored in a random file.
-rw-r--r--  1 jeamy users 1450631611 10. Aug 18:47 Vj8hE66fAm

but the decompression failed with the error above.
see file size of the tar file (unpacked with KNewStuff2) against the
unpacked file :
-rw-------  1 jeamy users 2173122560 10. Aug 18:49 ktar-w26300.tar
-rw-r--r--  1 jeamy users 2173117930 10. Aug 18:51 USNO-NOMAD-1e8.dat

i did the decompression it on the command line to verify the integrity
of the downloaded file.
it works perfectly.

conclusion: the automatic download succeeds, but the decompression fails
at some point.
