: Help! Trying to unpack .gz files using gz2pk but it says it isn't a gz

Ah, there's your problem. You must download *.gz files as binary
files, not as text files. If you download them as text files, the
protocols will try and do end-of-line conversion, which would render
non-text files useless.
Thanks,
Pete
