It looks like you are doing it correctly, not sure why you are getting that error.

Here is what I see when I install locally:

I don't know what "incomplete block on file" means. Was the file completely downloaded before you tried installing it? A file will be locked if it is open by another program, or sometimes when it is being synced to the cloud. Did you have the file open when trying to install it?

Otherwise it's a big file so perhaps it's getting corrupted during the download phase? Try downloading it again and make sure it looks like the download is complete before attempting to install.

Here is the file posted on DropBox - maybe their file transfer would be a little cleaner?

You are doing the right steps. Just need to try a few things until the package installs correctly.
