Message-ID: <38A9C365.BA567FD1@wxs.nl> (raw)
after applying a new 'snapshot' (20000131) I had suddenly a problem
using 'tar' on certain archives
it produced a 'stack dump'
I downloaded tar-1.13 from 'gnu' and generated it with no problems,
however it has (at least) 2 runtime problems:
- it does not recognize 'tar-filenames' with MS convention
'd:/dir/xxx.tar', but maybe many more unix programs will
not recognize a path that does not start with '/' and is still
'absolute', so '//d/dir/xxx.tar' wiil do. (The old tar did ??)
- it does not work with stdin and stdout, or 'pipe' to or from another
program. I have no idea yet why ??
