corrupt 3.0b2 linux file

When I download the 3.0b2 file for linux (x86, not x86_64), I get a corrupted file. I've tried downloading multiple times using both firefox and wget. When I try to extract it, I get this:

$ tar jxvf Zotero-3.0b2.1_linux-i686.tar.bz2

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.

the file is fine, I just downloaded and tested. Likely a corrupt version got cached somewhere.

Good call. I downloaded to my server and transferred from there, worked fine.
