Stefan Bodewig created COMPRESS-338:
---------------------------------------
Summary: fill some gaps in tar implementation
Key: COMPRESS-338
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-338
Project: Commons Compress
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.10
Reporter: Stefan Bodewig
The test archive linked to in COMPRESS-336 shows our tar code isn't completely
on par with the python lib that uses it for its tests:
* we don't seem to identify all kinds of links (./ustar/linktest2/symtype ->
../linktest1/regtype is identified as two entries, as is
./ustar/linktest2/lnktype link to ./ustar/linktest1/regtype)
* we only seem to parse gnu/sparse-0.0 properly, not 0.1 or 1.0
* {{Lister}} shows parts of the Pax-Headers as extra entries for the pax/
headers
* I'm not sure about the non-ASCII characters in a bunch of file names
It is probably best to pick the issues independently as subtasks of this.
