Outlines to use tar cvf which in fact does not create a gzip'd archive; for that you need z added.

Yes, this does look like a mistake. The official docs actually list the command for extracting the file as tar -xvf conjur-cli-<RHEL version>.tar.gz without a z. We'll fix this in the next release and update the official docs when it's out.
