  • tar (1.23-2ubuntu1) maverick-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * src/create.c, src/common.h, src/tar.c: Revert patch introduced in 2004
        to fix a dpkg bug long since worked around. The patch caused Debian's
        tar to produce archives with longname headers for files with names
        longer than 99 characters, instead of 100 per POSIX. Also backport a
        hack to re-enable this broken behaviour when the TAR_LONGLINK_100
        environment variable is set. Without these changes, pristine-tar (at
        least) can produce broken tarballs when tarballs committed on systems
        with tar >= 1.23-4 are recreated on systems with tar < 1.23-4 and
        pristine-tar < 1.11. References: Debian bug #598345, #603231,
        #602907. LP: #696480.
