📄 Description

The tar's decompression flags are causing errors which ask for the "--zstd" flag. With the fixes of this pull request, these errors will disappear and the commands will run properly.

Here is an example of the current behavior:

root@fedora:/home/persioqq# curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64.tar.zst \
    | sudo tar x -C /usr
tar: Archive is compressed. Use --zstd option
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
curl: (23) Failure writing output to destination, passed 16366 returned 0

Thank you for your attention.
