http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19252 <untar> does not untar symbolic links properly Summary: <untar> does not untar symbolic links properly Product: Ant Version: 1.5.1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The <untar> task does not properly restore the symbolic link from the tar. On Unix (I tried on Linux and SGI), I created a tar with a symbolic link in it. I can untar this file fine with "tar xvf <file.tar>" command but using <untar> command, the links are created as regular files with 0 (zero) size.
