I'm starting a build with moduleset-unstable. I've run into a fairly
problem  at the meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap stage:

*** Checking out docbook-setup *** [2/13]
jhbuild build: failed to unpack /Users/paul/gtk/source/pkgs/DB_1

there is nothing wrong with the downloaded tarball - i can unpack it
manually into ~/gtk/source without any issues. but jhbuild refuses to
believe it can do this. anybody got any clues? or hints on how to get
more info?
