Hello, as reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=500742 by Bruce Jerrick, tar --atime-preserve produces an error when source files are on read-only filesystem as it tries utime() to reset atime, and that fails. Attached patch should fix that behaviour - ignoring EROFS return value.
Greetings,
Ondřej Vašík
