Package: tar Version: 1.14-2.2 Severity: normal tar reports an error if you use --null together with -C and -T and tar creates an archive with wring content
Example: cd dir=/usr/share/doc (cd "$dir"; find . -type f -name \*.pdf.gz -print0) | tar -C "$dir" --null -T - -cvzf pdf.tar.gz tar: -C: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Removing leading `/' from member names /usr/share/doc/ /usr/share/doc/base-files/ /usr/share/doc/base-files/README.FHS /usr/share/doc/base-files/README.base /usr/share/doc/base-files/copyright ... for comparison, the same without --null: cd dir=/usr/share/doc (cd "$dir"; find . -type f -name \*.pdf.gz) | tar -C "$dir" -T - -cvzf pdf.tar.gz ./fontconfig/fontconfig-user.pdf.gz (same effect with tar 1.15.91-2 (sid), but without the error message "tar: -C: Cannot stat: No such file or directory") -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
