Comment # 2 on bug 1024931 from Dieter Jurzitza

You can see in attachement (2) that double commander exhibits similar (not
identical) errors. Please always compare left pane ("original") with right pane
(displayed "archive contents") The paths are somewhat cut, the contents of the
subdirectories are listed with arbitrary names at locations that do not exist.
Due to the fact that this shows in both midnight commander and double commander
I am assuming that there is some kind of tar-extracting library, used by both
programs, resulting in such a clash.
This should not happen IMHO, there is something very odd. Reading from tar
archives is quite a basic functionality and should be reliable.
Just to add: the archive file has about 13.6 GByte in size, but this should not
matter as well. "tar" can cope with the file - flawlessly.
