I downloaded both files with Firefox.

>ls
total 560K
4.0K less-661.sig  556K less-661.tar.gz

and the archive seems to be OK.

>file less-661.tar.gz
less-661.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix, original size 648198

However:

This is most likely a Firefox bug. See #518. You can confirm by uncompressing the file; you will probably find that the result is still compressed, and that it will then pass the signature check.

Indeed, it seems to be a Firefox problem.
It is not unzipped, but somehow it downloaded corrupted.

I redownloaded it (with Chromium this time), and the problem got away.
THANKS!!! :-)
