Hi,

I get lots of messages when un-tarring this app:

Keyword/appserver/static/screenshot.png
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword LIBARCHIVE.creationtime'
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword
SCHILY.dev'
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword SCHILY.ino'

So if you search the inter webs for "shilly.nlink" you'll find plenty of solutions:

Yea, it has to do with how the creator packaged the app. I've seen it a ton and I've learned its safe to ignore.

Honestly, there's a lot of times that I download apps and still ls -laR and see if there are any .DS_Store or other OS level crud for me to remove. I don't want someone else's mess all over my pretty indexers 😉
