Package: tar
Version: 1.29b-1.1
Severity: normal
"man tar" says:
--preserve
Same as both -p and -s.
But "tar" itself doesn't support this option:
$ tar --preserve -cf /tmp/a.tar /etc/fstab
tar: option '--preserve' is ambiguous; possibilities: '--preserve-permissions'
'--preserve-order'
Try 'tar --help' or 'tar --usage' for more information.
