Unable to load PS3 Save Data

I've been trying to convert my PS3 save games over to Steam, on Linux. Unfortunately, I can only seem to get the following error:

$: python3 ~/Projects/borderlands2/bl2_save_edit.py -b -o json /media/TEST/PS3/SAVEDATA/BLUS30982-SAVE-SAVE0007/SAVE0007.SAV bl2-axton.json

Here is a copy of a save file from BL2 that is not working.
SAVE0007.zip

The tool does however seem to work OK with save games created with the Steam version. So as a temporary workaround it seems I can at least cheat and set levels/money to match my console toons, once I've found the same weapons anyway.

Edit a PC or you can use brutefoce ps3 to first decrypt the and then convert it to pc with gibbed save editor.

Converting a pc save with gibbed to ps3 you can then convert that save but your save has to be decrypted first or else it will be corrupt 👍
