Bug#318805: tar: --exclude option ignored

Package: tar Version: 1.15.1-2 Severity: normal Tar no longer respects the --exlude option. Here is a portion of the script that was working previously: tar -cf $1 /home/user --exclude 'user/src/*' I've tried multiple variations of this syntax, but nothing seems to work. Thanks, Bill --
