Hey All, I was trying my hand at building my first debian package (actually updating the libxalan1.2 package to the new 1.3 version) and I get a wierd result with tar:
( cd xml-xalan/c/samples ; tar cf - --exclude CVS . ) | ( cd debian/libxalan1.3-dev/usr/share/doc/libxalan1.3-dev/examples ; tar xf - ) /home/jasons/debian/xalan-1.2/debian/libxalan1.3-dev/usr/share/doc/libxalan1.3-dev/examples tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Skipping to next header tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors When I execute the command without the first subshell, it works. Why is the first subshell confusing tar? Thanks, jas. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
