http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1024931 Bug ID: 1024931 Summary: lib for unpacking tar archives makes errors Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.1 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 713789 --> http://bugzilla.suse.com/attachment.cgi?id=713789&action=edit Erratic results looking into an archive with mc I stumbled across an error that is hard for me to assign. I installed a tar based backup system at my sisters site. Now I told her to use midnight commander if she wanted to extract certain files from this archive. She tried this and got strange results. Please take a look on attachement (1) Fehler - MidnightCommander.jpg. The directory contents "original" is shown on the left pane, the erratic content (i.E. what midnight commander reads from the archive is shown on the right pane). Please note that the archive (a file) is ok, I can flawlessly extract whatever I want using "tar", and I tested this several times. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
