Description Alex Alexander (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-12 20:15:29 UTC 
=app-arch/tar-1.22 doesn't understand the -J flag correctly and throws an error.

Commands tested with output:
# tar cfJ kvm-test.tar.lzma kvm.img 
tar: xz: Cannot exec: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

# tar xfJ kvm-test.tar.lzma
tar: xz: Cannot exec: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

The same commands work fine with =app-arch/tar-1.21-r1.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 1 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-12 20:26:21 UTC 
Please have a look at /usr/share/doc/tar-1.22/NEWS.bz2:

* Short option -J reassigned as a short equivalent of --xz

So tar now uses xz-utils (which are in portage but masked vurrently) instead of lzma-utils.

You can still (de)compress archives with lzma using tar this way:

  tar --use-compress-program=lzma ...
