Closing after not a lot of feedback (here or at https://github.com/cbm755/octsympy/issues/867). Assuming it was a local configuration issue that is now resolved.

Just extracted it with 7-Zip (twice: symbolic-2.6.0.tar.gz -> symbolic-2.6.0.tar -> symbolic-2.6.0).

Then ran:


pkg install symbolic-2.6.0



and got the following error:


unpack: FILETYPE must be "gunzip" for a directory
error: called from
unpack at line 122 column 7
untar at line 47 column 5
install at line 81 column 9
pkg at line 394 column 9

Thanks for the response!

I ran 7-Zip->Test Archive, and the result is:

Archives: 1
Packed size: 239429
Files: 1
Size: 1505280 bytes (1MB)

There are no errors.

It looks like the package file you have downloaded is not complete. If you have manually downloaded the package, can you verify that it is complete with an archive tool or by verifying the checksum?

When I execute:


    >>pkg install symbolic-2.6.0.tar.gz


from the command line, I get the following error:


    dirlist(3): out of bound 2
    error: called from
      install at line 102 column 19
      pkg at line 394 column 9


The package is manually downloaded and located in the current working directory.
Additional dependencies: Python(27) and Sympy, are installed.
