Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.0
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
So as to have proper file name encoding, I'm used to have
TAR_OPTIONS=--format=posix
But then built packages don't work:
$ echo $TAR_OPTIONS
--format=posix
$ apt-get source xsnow
$ cd xsnow-1.41
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
$ su
# cd ..
# dpkg -i xsnow_1.41-2_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 103333 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace xsnow 1:1.41-2 (using
.../samy/xsnow_1.41-2_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement xsnow ...
dpkg: error processing /home/samy/xsnow_1.41-2_i386.deb (--install):
corrupted filesystem tarfile - corrupted package archive: Success
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/home/samy/xsnow_1.41-2_i386.deb
Of course, it would properly work if TAR_OPTIONS was empty (and hence
dpkg-buildpackage would use usual tar format).
I suggest dpkg should be able to handle tar posix format.

Description:

Changes:
dpkg (1.14.25) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Fix typo in package description ('privides' -> 'provides').
Thanks to Pascal De Vuyst <[email protected]>. Closes: #510755
* Do not lose conffiles while replacing them from another package on the
same install run. Closes: #513857
As a side effect this fixes the following symptoms:
- Do not do unneeded conffile prompts when it wasn't locally changed.
- Do not ensure (and thus do not output debug information) that the
.dpkg-new and .dpkg-tmp directories for an existing directory do not
exist. Closes: #80416
.
[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* dpkg-deb now always produces GNU tarballs inside .deb and ignores
TAR_OPTIONS. Closes: #513863
.
[ Updated dpkg translations ]
* Basque (Piarres Beobide). Closes: #506092, #509851
* Simplified Chinese (Deng Xiyue). Closes: #506177
* Traditional Chinese (Tetralet). Closes: #513312
.
[ Updated dselect translations ]
* Basque (Piarres Beobide). Closes: #509852
* Norwegian Bokmål (Hans F. Nordhaug).
* Portuguese (Miguel Figueiredo). Closes: #509904
.
[ Updated scripts translations ]
* Add missing space in French translation.
Thanks to Cyril "Oeil de lynx" Brulebois.
