# equery uses tar [ Searching for packages matching tar... ] [ Colour Code : set unset ] [ Legend : Left column (U) - USE flags from make.conf ] [ : Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ] [ Found these USE variables for app-arch/tar-1.15.92 ] U I - - build : !!internal use only!! DO NOT SET THIS FLAG YOURSELF!, used for creating build images and the first half of bootstrapping. - - bzip2 : Use the bzlib compression library + + nls : Adds Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale utilities) - - static : !!do not set this during bootstrap!! Causes binaries to be statically linked instead of dynamically
I compiled it with bzip2 support but using tar cv folder/ | bzip2 -9 > folder.tar.bz2 makes broken archive :/ while tar cvjf makes good ones. This does not occure when using .91 version.
Honestly, I don't get the point of putting *alpha* software into the testing branch. Did the responsible person read the gnutar homepage?
*** Bug 151321 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Someone kindly p.mask this broken thing... thanks.
dont be retarded
1.15.92-r1 in cvs with fix from upstream
