Hi all,
Tar-1.21, when invoked with either the '-t', '--test-label' or '-v' options,
will output the following warning on 24 out of the 58 tarballs used in LFS
(interestingly enough, one of those is the tar-1.21 tarball itself!).
tar: Record size = 8 blocks
The attached, untested patch suppresses that output by redirecting stderr to
/dev/null.
Regards,
Matt.
