Hi, The error reported is reproducible using tar-1.21. However, the book has moved on to 1.22, which behaves as expected, as did 1.20. The only relevant discussion I found on the tar mailing lists is here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2008-12/msg00028.html A few notes (using version 1.21): I was unable to reproduce the error with any other .tar.bz2 files; I tried a few. I also tried the following (which worked fine *shrug*): bunzip2 glibmm-2.18.1.tar.bz2 strace -o strace.output cat glibmm.tar | tar xof - Trent. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
