So I've to change the shell command
tar -t -f archive1.tar | my_filter_filename_list | \
tar -c -f archive2.tar --files-from=- --no-recursion
into
tar -t -f archive1.tar | my_filter_filename_list | \
(while IFS='' read -r file
do printf '--add-file %s\n' "$file"
done
) | \
tar -c -f archive2.tar --files-from=- --no-recursion
? Please revert this change as it will break existing applications of
gnu-tar. A new option, e.g. --actions-from, to be used rather than
--files-from with the new semantics, may be added, though.
Regards,
Helmut
