http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28776 [EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |FIXED ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-01-11 19:32 ------- Ok, I have found a "NEWS" entry for tar: http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/tar/tar/NEWS?rev=1.83&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup the relavent section is: version 1.13.9 - Paul Eggert, 1999-08-18. * `tar' now writes two zero blocks at end-of-archive instead of just one. POSIX.1 requires this, and some other `tar' implementations check for it. So it looks like it is a good idea to output two zero blocks. As a zero block is used to finish an archive, there should be no BC problems with having two. I have committed the change to ant cvs and ant cvs 1.6 branch, it should be in the next release of ant. Thanks for the patch. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
