trouble unzipping a package

Hello Unix gurus,

I have been studying to install packages in solaris 10 but I can't seem to move forward. I downloaded a test package online ( gdb-6.8-sol10-sparc-local.gz ) and ftp to my home in solaris 10. I gave this command

gunzip gdb-6.8-sol10-sparc-local.gz

and this is what i keep getting back

gunzip: gdb-6.8-sol10-sparc-local.gz: invalid compressed data--crc error

Can anyone please help me with this? What am I doing wrong?

Thank you all.
