If this is going to be any help
32,768 = 32K exactly
This is probably the size of your filesystem cluster.
When you look at file size, there are two values to watch: file size on disk and file size actual.
The one on disk is usually rounded to the nearest filesystem cluster.
Whatever is saying filesize mismatch is usually looking at the wrong value. It happens sometimes when you transfer something from a Windows to a Unix machine.
In this case the file you get is usually padded with 0's. You might get a warning that your package has trailing zeros, but it should decompress just fine.
