@madebr Thanks for your help.

Both tar and bzip2 work correctly from the command-line.
I’m using asdf, which uses Pyenv internally, to build and manage the python version, so it doesn’t involve the CentOS package maintainer.
I have left a comment on the related issue.

I managed to fix the issue by installing bzip2, including it’s shared library, from source and then rebuilding Python.

I think this means the problem is with your linux distribution, more specific python and/or bzip2. It looks like it is not able to extract bz2 archives. Do you have bzip2 installed? You can do a few things:

check bz2/tar (extract from the command line: cd /tmp && tar xf /home/jwill/Downloads/boost_1_74_0.tar.bz2
open a ticket to the centos python package maintainer

(I am not able to reproduce it on python 3.7.7@Linux and python3.9.0@Windows)
