Package: tar
Version: 1.28-2.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I noticed tar showing an error with files which contain some backslashes.
Example:
user@pc:~$ touch '\\'
user@pc:~$ tar -cf test.tar '\\'
or
user@pc:~$ touch \\\\
user@pc:~$ tar -cf test.tar \\\\
Output:
tar: \\: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
But:
user@pc:~$ touch \\
user@pc:~$ tar -cf test.tar \\
works.
and:
user@pc:~$ touch '\'
user@pc:~$ tar -cf test.tar '\'
works
Best regards
