Some dmgs tagged as bz2 when Downloading from Safari

I can reproduce this, but it makes no sense whatsoever. I am tempted to call it 
an
Apple bug.

Of course I'd like to fix it, but I am totally lost. Do you have any other URLs 
that
have the same problem? How about some that don't?

Ok, I just wasted nearly two hours tracking this down, and I am more sure than 
ever that it is a Safari bug.

The file is being sent as text/plain, so Safari will try to auto-detect the 
type, and notices it is a bzip2-
compressed file, and then somehow gets confused by the fact that The Unarchiver 
declares an UTI for bzip2 but 
no other program (including BOMArchiveHelper) does.

I can fix this by removing The Unarchiver's bzip2 UTI, but that breaks The 
Unarchiver instead. I will try to report 
the bug to Apple.

Thanks for spending the time on this one. Hope Apple picks it up.

http://andrewescobar.com/files/Enabler/Enabler1.5.dmg exists now

Assuming that there are no differences in the dmg structure and his webserver, 
Both Safari and the WebKit 
nightlys download this fine.

So it seems. I'll just hope that's the end of it and close this bug.
