When I try to update my Cygwin64 installation (on a virtualBox Win7-64
installation) I get an error about the cygwin32-1.7.27-1.tar.xz package
which seems corrupted.

This is confirmed from command line on which i get:

$ tar -rf cygwin32-1.7.27-1.tar.xz
tar: Impossibile aggiornare archivi compressi
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now


Ciao,
  Angelo.


last is is cygwin-1.7.27-2.tar.xz

$ md5sum cygwin-1.7.27-2.tar.xz
7dc5f90c8500701849b16648e3980320 *cygwin-1.7.27-2.tar.xz

why cygwin32 ?

Moreover:
-r, --append               append files to the end of an archive

> tar: Impossibile aggiornare archivi compressi

as the message says (in italian) you can not append files
to compressed archive

Regards
Marco
