Package: tar
Version: 1.20-1+lenny1
Severity: important

Since the package update in lenny a few days ago, my automatic backups to a 
remote system, which are using tar --rsh-command=\/usr\/bin\/ssh, started to 
run forever. 
Also a manual execution of: 
tar -c  -f '[email protected]:backup.tgz' --rsh-command=\/usr\/bin\/ssh -z 
'/home' -vvvvvv
only prints a few lines (the first 4 files or so) and stops doing anything 
after that. (but still runs until one breaks it with ctrl+c).

Downgrading the package to this version: 
http://snapshot.debian.org/package/tar/1.20-1/#tar_1.20-1 on the remote system 
solved the problem, and the backups work again.

So I believe the problem has something to do with the changes made to the rmt 
command in the update.
