> Tar UnArchive Fails when archive contains directory sizes which are non-zero.
> I recently came across a set of files which failed to extract with
> commons-compress but I was able to successfully extract the files with GNU
> tar.
> The problem is TarArchiveInputStream.java gets the size of each entry in a
> tar archive to determine how many bytes to read ahead. Directories are always
> sized 0 bytes, however its technically possible a tar archive contains a size
> for a directory. This causes the Input Stream to loose it's place and
> eventually results in an exception being thrown.
> I was able to implement a proof-of-concept fix by checking if an entity is a
> directory and setting the directory size to 0. (A directory with Files in a
> Tar Archive still has a size of 0 as the directory itself does not have size
> in the archive.)
