I see this with both the 1.2.0 and 1.1.0 tarballs linked from the download page,
https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/releases/
although the end of file error occurs at different points in the file.

I'm working on Fedora 29

Here is a screenshot:

I tried the 1.2.0 and 1.1.0 *.zip files as well, and I get the following error when trying to unzip them on Fedora 29:

What are your checksums? Most likely, the downloads were corrupted, because those tarballs have been up for several years.

Thanks @WeatherGod
You're probably right.

As a work around, I'm cloning the GitHub repo and skipping the tarballs.

Closing the issue.
