Description Aaron Gyes 2005-01-06 15:35:30 UTC

GNU Tar 1.15 now automatically detect archives. "tar xf foo.tar.bz2" is now okay. Current bash-completion in portage wont show any bz2 files when I type tar xf foo<tab>.

I think I'll wait on tar 1.15 becoming stable before I patch bash-completion for this.

It's been out of ~arch for a while now, can this be implemented?

Figures... I just did a revision bump yesterday :)

Oh well, here's another one. Please test.

Just noticed as I was getting ready to send the patch upstream that I modified -xf to work on compressed archives but forgot to still complete on plain .tar's. doh. fixed.
