Hi Sergey, tar tf issues a warning message about the attached tiny .tar.xz file, although it goes ahead and decodes it ok. Forcing with tar tJf gets no warning. This is with tar 1.23 compiled from original source on CentOS (though I can't imagine that that matters).
$ tar tf texlive-scripts.i386-netbsd.tar.xz |head tar: This does not look like a tar archive bin/i386-netbsd/man bin/i386-netbsd/rungs tlpkg/tlpobj/texlive-scripts.i386-netbsd.tlpobj It happens with other tiny .tar.xz's, but certainly not all. tar tf recognizes most of them fine. Thanks, Karl
texlive-scripts.i386-netbsd.tar.xz
