I agree there is something odd at the end of the file.

A workaround is to manually download and install from the .gz file. I.e. run a build chain that ignores the error and continues.

@wojiushixiaobai the 'trailing garbage' problem should have been resolved with today's python-oracledb 3.2 release.
