I'm trying to install WPS office in Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 , the installation through the Software App is not working (By unknown reasons at least by me) I've been able to install other software but not WPS office, so I tried with the command to install .DEB packages and it outputs the next error:
sudo dpkg -i wps-office_10.1.0.5672-a21_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 216574 files and directories currently installed.)

WARNING: This answer may became obsolete anytime soon. WPS for Linux seems be have been abandoned. The version you have is the last one and it may not be installable in newer Ubuntu releases.
The original error message -
unexpected end of file or stream- suggests corrupt download. This has been confirmed with the checksum.Download from my personal share and confirm SHA1 matches
