Package: tar
Version: 1.15.1-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

it seems that option "-X" is broken in the new upstream release
(or is it a syntax change that i didn't see ?)

eg:

$ ls -1 mydir/
foo
bar

with 1.14-2:

$ tar czfv plop.tar.gz mydir/ -X mydir/foo
mydir/
mydir/bar

with 1.15.1-1:

$ LANG=C tar czfv plop.tar.gz mydir/ -X mydir/foo
mydir/
mydir/bar
mydir/foo
tar: -X: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
mydir/foo
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors


Regards,

Sebastien
