My guess is that you didn't create the tar file correctly. If you
are in the directory containing the srfi2 directory, then you should
execute:
tar cf srfi2-v1_0_0.tar srfi2/v1.0.0
You probably forgot to put the /v1.0.0 at the end.
A much simpler approach is to use snowman to upload your package with
the command
snowman upload srfi2
