Subject: can not build from source

Package: tar
Version: 1.13.93-4
Severity: serious
Justification: no longer builds from source

  Hi,

    If I do: "cd /tmp && apt-get source tar" it retrieves:
      /tmp/tar_1.13.93-4.diff.gz,
      /tmp/tar_1.13.93-4.dsc and
      /tmp/tar_1.13.93.orig.tar.gz
    It also creates "/tmp/tar-1.13.93"

    Then I do: "cd /tmp/tar-1.13.93 && dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc",
I get the following error:
/usr/bin/../lib/libc.a(mktime.o)(.text+0x1f0): In function `__mktime_internal':
: multiple definition of `__mktime_internal'
../lib/libtar.a(mktime.o)(.text+0x224):/tmp/tar-1.13.93/lib/mktime.c:246: first defined here
/usr/bin/ld: Warning: size of symbol `__mktime_internal' changed from 1126 in ../lib/libtar.a(mktime.o) to 1216 in ../lib/libtar.a(mktime.o)
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

    I think there was a typo (1216 and 1126) somewhere...

    Thanks,
     Pedro

Works fine here. Something wrong with your toolchain perhaps?

gcc -O2 -g -Wall -o tar buffer.o compare.o create.o delete.o extract.o xheader.o incremen.o list.o mangle.o misc.o names.o rtapelib.o sparse.o system.o tar.o update.o utf8.o ../lib/libtar.a -lrt

No, those numbers indicate that the size of the code for that function
changed unexpectedly.

Builds fine for us.

Hi,

  After "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade",
  "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us" built package "tar" successfully.

  My machine was not up to date, that was the bug.

  Sorry for the wrong report.
  Thanks Matt,
    Pedro
