Any clue what is causing such discrepancy on cygwin ? I am reasonable sure that is a recent change in behaviour as the previous file version that have the same structure gave me no headache in the past. Of course if I unpack and repack the tar file, the directory are as expected reported http://matzeri.altervista.org/works/octave/works/tar-content.txt Regards Marco -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
