http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30143 tar task : directory checksum error ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-07-17 13:43 ------- Just a small historical note - Ant distributions have long required GNU tar, due to their long paths. Such paths are quite common in java hierarchies. We used to have a red warning to this effect on the download pages but I guess that went away when we moved to the mirrored distribution system. See for example, the 1.4.1 release notes http://archive.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/RELEASE-NOTES-1.4.1.html It is always possible to use the zip distribution and to expand it with the jar command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
