Package: automake1.8
Version: 1.8.3-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
This bug is related to #235385 filed against automake1.7, with the
patch redone for automake1.8.
Summary: automake uses the GNU tar -o option to use the old UNIX v7
tar format. This has a 100 char pathname limit. This completely
breaks automake-produced archives since I have several source trees
which easily exceed this limit.
automake should replace the use of -o with --format=posix, or else
drop the -o without a replacement (assuming the default format is
now posix).
