Hello, contents of tarball at *1 is determined by EXTRA_DIST setting in https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tar.git/tree/tests/Makefile.am?id=39849e9d91f477d3fb839f93cd0815d0cb3273e9#n20 which in turn refers to TESTSUITE_AT.
As of 1.35 release, TESTSUITE_AT was missing exclude17/18.at and the following later commit adds them, fixing the issue of missing files: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tar.git/commit/?id=39849e9d91f477d3fb839f93cd0815d0cb3273e9 Note that the link in the commit message refers specifically to that: https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-tar/2023-07/msg00002.html Commits in *3 and *4 added the files, but forgot to update TESTSUITE_AT. Tarball in *2 has those files, because it is not actually a release tarball, it is an archive that git automatically generates from the git source tree when a new tag is added. That tarball should not be used. Rather than modify testsuite.at to exclude the two missing files, maybe it's better to add the two missing files to the source tree in that same patch instead? And please do refer to the commit that will fix the issue upstream when they issue a new tarball release.
