Title:
Cannot extract lzma compressed archives created with tar
Status in tar package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: tar
After upgrading to Maverick I'm not able to open with `unlzma' lzma
compressed archives created with `tar'.
Steps to reproduce:
$ touch file
$ tar --lzma -cf archive.tar.lzma file
$ rm file
$ unlzma archive.tar.lzma
unlzma: SetDecoderProperties() error
Extracting the archive using `tar' works:
$ tar --lzma -xf archive.tar.lzma
$ ls
archive.tar.lzma file
Extracting tar archives compressed with `lzma' works:
$ rm *
$ touch file
$ tar -cf archive.tar file
$ lzma archive.tar
$ rm file
$ unlzma archive.tar.lzma
$ tar -xf archive.tar
$ ls
archive.tar file
Extracting with `unlzma' compressed archives created with `tar' in Ubuntu
Lucid works. `lzma' version is the same in Lucid and Maverick, and in Lucid I
wasn't affected by this problem so I'm addressing `tar'. Package info:
$ apt-cache policy tar
