Comment 59 for bug 539814

Description of problem:
When I create tar archive with new tar (tar-1.22-10.fc12.x86_64) old tar is not able to open this archive.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tar-1.22-10.fc12.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create archive with new tar
2.try to extract it with old tar
3.

Actual results:
/bin/tar: squirrelmail-1.4.20-RC2/images/folder.png: Cannot utime: Bad file descriptor

I've got this error in koji when updating package:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1901164&name=build.log

Expected results:
extracted archive

Additional info:
this breaks package updates where maintainer has to recreate tar archive. Also upstream tarballs where upstream uses Fedora system may produce broken tarballs which is even worse, so I consider this to be high severity.
