↑ got it right. The real problem is that it’s impossible to enable GNU’s so-called Large File Support, and pax (correctly) uses off_t, which is broken on GNU/Linux and GNU/Hurd (but not GNU/kFreeBSD) without LFS enabled. So this is not a bug in pax. ** Changed in: pax (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/56764 Title: Unable to create files larger than 2GB To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pax/+bug/56764/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
