Great, thanks. Somehow I doubt that getting Archive::Tar fixed upstream is going to be particularly easy. Or quick. Seems they've got open bugs from more than a decade ago, including some marked Critical. https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Archive-Tar Would it be an idea to change the EXTRACT_CMD to use ptar(1) (comes with Archive::Tar) for perl modules, even if only temporarily?
