Subject: tar: Tar --verify fails with >4GB files
Package: tar
Version: 1.16.1-1
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
When creating archives with member files larger than
4GB (might be a 2GB limit; not sure), the --verify
option fails. (Creation and extraction of archives
with > 4GB files works fine without the --verify
option.)
Here's a sample output from a 'tar cvvWf /dev/nst0
directory directory etc' command:
