Comment(by ddrake):
Hrm, the output of "{{{tar tvf}}}" is not very consistent:
On t2.math, GNU tar 1.17:
{{{
drwxr-xr-x mvngu/mvngu 0 2010-01-24 08:12 atlas-3.8.3.p11/
drwxr-xr-x mvngu/mvngu 0 2009-06-21 18:31 atlas-3.8.3.p11/ATLAS-
build/
drwxr-xr-x mvngu/mvngu 0 2010-01-24 07:41 atlas-3.8.3.p11/patches/
-rw-r--r-- mvngu/mvngu 8944 2009-01-01 19:41
atlas-3.8.3.p11/patches/PM32SSE2.tgz
}}}
On bsd.math, BSD tar 2.6.2:
{{{
drwxr-xr-x 0 mvngu mvngu 0 Jan 24 08:12 atlas-3.8.3.p11/
drwxr-xr-x 0 mvngu mvngu 0 Jun 21 2009 atlas-3.8.3.p11/ATLAS-
build/
drwxr-xr-x 0 mvngu mvngu 0 Jan 24 07:41 atlas-3.8.3.p11/patches/
-rw-r--r-- 0 mvngu mvngu 8944 Jan 1 2009
atlas-3.8.3.p11/patches/PM32SSE2.tgz
}}}
On an Ubuntu 9.10 machine, GNU tar 1.22:
{{{
drwxr-xr-x mvngu/mvngu 0 2010-01-25 01:12 atlas-3.8.3.p11/
drwxr-xr-x mvngu/mvngu 0 2009-06-22 10:31 atlas-3.8.3.p11/ATLAS-
build/
drwxr-xr-x mvngu/mvngu 0 2010-01-25 00:41 atlas-3.8.3.p11/patches/
-rw-r--r-- mvngu/mvngu 8944 2009-01-02 12:41
atlas-3.8.3.p11/patches/PM32SSE2.tgz
}}}
So I think we need to drop the "v" and just do "tf" (with a "j" if
necessary for bzipped spkgs). This eliminates the file sizes and
modification times from the checksum, but I think our test will still be
pretty reliable, and I don't know a good way to normalize the verbose file
listing. (For example, observe that tar is printing the file modification
times using the local timezone -- my machine is UTC+9, and in January,
bsd.math and t2.math are both UTC-8.)
I'll try to upload a new patch shortly.
