Bug 28557 – unpack should handle tbz files as tbz2 files

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2003-09-12 15:29:11 UTC]

Sometimes people will package tar'd and bzip2'd files as .tbz files to make
DOS happy (8.3).  unpack in portage-2.0.49-r3 doesn't know how to deal with this
so I have to manually do it in my ebuild.  It would be a one-line change to
ebuild.sh to have unpack support this.

Should be:

tbz2|tbz)

in unpack() and it will work fine.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:


Actual Results:  
unpack blah.tbz: file format not recognized. Ignoring.

Expected Results:  
unpack should be able to unpack .tbz files

bz != bz2

They are two different schemes.
That's not a safe assumtion really.

And what packages do that, btw?

Just one and I'm going to email upstream to get them to change it.

I think I was just being lazy when I entered this bug.  I'm going to close it.
