Friends,

For the last day when I run the application manager it fails on the following repositories: "Maemo.org" and "Maemo Extras"

I have made no changes to my repositories lately. The error I get is "Subprocess gzip returned an error code (1)". Please see the screenshot.

Can anyone please provide any guidance why this is failing?

Yes, there is a problem with the Packages.gz file on the repo server (or probably the CDN)

There are already other threads about it, namely this one:
