gxzip error when importing OVA into 6.5d

We have a client that we are getting an error when importing an OVA, we have been doing this same method for over a year and this is the first time we have seen this error.

We export from vsphere 5.5 and the client is using vcenter/vsphere 6.5 to import and they get the following error.

com.vmware.ovfs.ovfs-main.ovfs.unsupported_gxip_compression

Anybody run into this before?
