I suggest setting the tar format to "ustar" per "Open Virtualization Format Specification v2.1.1".
A pdf is available at https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0243_2.1.1.pdf

See the last paragraph of section 5.3 that says...

A compressed OVF package shall be created by using the TAR format that complies with the USTAR
(Uniform Standard Tape Archive) format as defined by the ISO/IEC/IEEE 9945:2009.
