Nightly build mscore.64bits-2015-02-16-09-36-b25ac8a.tar.bz2 unusable (although 5 hours old)
After downloading mscore.64bits-2015-02-16-09-36-b25ac8a.tar.bz2 from http://prereleases.musescore.org/linux/nightly/ I tried to unpack the tar.bz2 file, but this fails:
---------------------------------------------snip---------------------------------
gtar jxvf mscore.64bits-2015-02-16-09-36-b25ac8a.tar.bz2
mscore
bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;
perhaps it is corrupted? *Possible* reason follows.
bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)
It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
gtar: Unexpected EOF in archive
gtar: Unexpected EOF in archive
gtar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

It seems that mscore.64bits-2015-02-16-09-36-b25ac8a.tar.bz2 hasn't been complete uploaded (and that after 5 hours!!!)

It seems that there is something basically wrong with the upload strategy of a new nightly build: After getting some RSS feed news (availabiltiy of some new new nightly build), each time after having downloaded the announced nightly build after about 1h, it can't be unpackaded (see above) .
I posted this fact already in august of past year :-(

The compilation and uploading are automated.
I thank anybody who sees something wrong.
At the time I'm adjusting to the change of Qt version, and waiting success I disable my automated script.

I believe I have a fix in place. Please let me know if the problem still occurs.
