While this isn't _technically_ a bug (as the parameters are simply passed to tar), most users would probably expect to see the applications usage, rather than being bombarded with that jarring text. As already discussed here and in the upstream issue this is not really a bug and unless a fix for this is accepted upstream I do not think it would be wise to potentially change compatible behavior in Gentoo only. I made a comment on the upstream issue to see if they are interested at all. |
