Certain tar files won't open
----------------------------
Key: COMPRESS-117
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-117
Project: Commons Compress
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Archivers
Affects Versions: 1.0
Environment: MS Windows Vista, NetBeans IDE
Reporter: Leo Izen
Certain tar files, like this one:
http://leo.scruffohio.net/cgi-bin/uploads/lzma912.tar aren't being recognized
by the ArchiveInputStream detector.
I can open this tar file perfectly well with WinRAR and 7-zip. Neither of these
complain. I can also open it with the command tar -xvf. However, I narrowed it
down, and it turns out the TarArchiveInputStream.matches() is returning false,
even though it is a valid tar file. This glitch should be fixed.
