Public bug reported:
I have occasionally experienced instances when my backups using tar have
created a bad .tar file.
Archive Manager opens the archive file and the archive hierarchy is
partially displayed, but there is no warning that file is corrupt and
the displayed tree is corrupt/incomplete.
Listing archive with tar -t exits with error, and opening the archive
with an alternative manager (ark) also displays partial hierarchy, but
does display a message warning that the tar file is corrupt.
