It's a problem on your end.  The file is not corrupt on the server.  I
can download and uncompress it fine.  

Once the file is downloaded, what does the linux "file" command say
about it?  Sometimes browsers will automatically unzip the file on
download, without telling you, leaving you with an uncompressed
tarball. 

When you download the file, tar -xjf gtk+-2.10.9.tar.bz2 gives you an
error?  What about the other dependencies, like glib?
