This problem appens on HP Proliant DL380G3 and also on a regular PC running gentoo. You'll find a screen dump here : lnxjfb root # emerge hpasm Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) app-admin/hpasm-6.30.0.12-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) hpasm-6.30.0-12.Redhat8_0.i386.rpm >>> Unpacking source... found gzip magic bytes trying to decompress with gzip...

What's up with this bug ? If I can help you to solve it, just ask.
I have the same problem, it seams that the line rpm2targz ${DISTDIR}/hpasm-6.30.0-12.Redhat8_0.i386.rpm in ebuild doesn't work properly . cahya.
I've had the same problem here too. Although, the problem doesn't seem to be in the following line: rpm2targz ${DISTDIR}/hpasm-6.30.0-12.Redhat8_0.i386.rpm || die but more likely in this one: tar zxf ${S}/hpasm-6.30.0-12.Redhat8_0.i386.tar.gz || die as I was able to find the .tar.gz resulting from the rpm2targz command in my $WORKDIR and was even able to successfully untar it manually with "tar -xzf" I never really had to peek into the whole portage scripts (it has always worked well for me) so I wasn't able find a resolution right away but I'll try to manually install what comes out of the tar.gz and once I get it to work, I might be able to concentrate more and solve the problem once my server fan is properly slowed down to a "I can hear myself think" level.. (those with a DL380 will understand my plight ehehe)
I manually instaled hpasm but it wouldn't create its kernel modules against my 2.6.0 kernel. when I tried, all I got was two screenfuls of error messages (you gotta love binary-only stuff) One other thing I noticed is in /opt/compaq/*, some files in there (especially in hpasm/etc) seems to be looking for or expecting Redhat-style runlevel/init so all that got me to wonder if this package would even work on a gentoo system, be it with kernel 2.2.x or 2.4.x (you gotta love remise-en-question) Anyways, stay tuned - I'll try to find some time to have a closer look at the whole thing. I'm thinking of compiling a 2.4 kernel, retrying to manually compile the hpasm modules against that source tree and then loading the resulting modules with my 2.6 (you gotta love module versioning)
I no longer have access to hp equipment so i can't even test this ebuild, bouncing back to bugwranglers, maybe they can find someone
fixed in cvs, the ebuild (without revision bump) should unpack and install just fine now
