Unrecognized archive format with RELENG_6_2 and RELENG_6

[Robin Gruyters]

Hi ya,

Yesterday I have upgraded one of servers to RELENG_6_2 and no problems so far.



tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format

This happends when the following command is used:

# tar -tf /dev/sa0

It will show you the first 10 files and then exits.
After searching the MARC list, I found the following post:

Anybody any idea how to fix this?

Kind regards,

This morning I recieved an email from one of our system manager and told me that the backup has failed with the following message: Apparently nobody has (yet) replied to it. After reading a few posts about similar problems I'd updated the libarchive (lib/libarchive) and tar (usr.bin/tar) in the source tree to RELENG_6 and recompiled both, but still encounter same problem.
