Version : 1.19When you try to update a tar archive which doesn't exist, tar exits with an error :
$ tar -uf foo.tar bar.txt This does not look like a tar archive tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors But the archive foo.tar is created successfully. With tar 1.18 : $ tar -uf foo.tar bar.txt $ The archive is also created successfully. -- Ozan ÇAĞLAYAN http://cekirdek.pardus.org.tr/~ozan <ozan_at_pardus.org.tr>
