Re: [Bug-tar] tar v1.26 - Folder has been renamed problem

[address@hidden]

Hi,

Here is a snippet of strace from running tar v1.26 on Ubuntu 12.04:

2496  11:45:54 write(1, "Verify /home/\n", 14) = 14
2496  11:45:54 fstatat64(AT_FDCWD, "/home", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = 0
2496  11:45:54 fstat64(0, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 0), ...}) = 0
2496  11:45:54 write(2, "tar: ", 5)     = 5
2496  11:45:54 write(2, "/home/: Cannot savedir", 22) = 22
2496  11:45:54 write(2, ": Not a directory", 17) = 17
2496  11:45:54 write(2, "\n", 1)        = 1
2496  11:45:54 write(2, "tar: ", 5)     = 5
2496  11:45:54 write(2, "/home: Directory has been rename"..., 33) = 33
2496  11:45:54 write(2, "\n", 1)        = 1
2496  11:45:54 fstatat64(AT_FDCWD, "/home", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = 0

Let me know if you need more as this is the first time I have really used strace.

Regards,

Tim.

I believe Paul is referring to this thread:

Yes, that's right, I was referring to that later thread.

Paul, as far as I can tell that thread (subject line "Possible bug in
1.26 version ?") is a completely separate report from this one. They are
both running on (Debian-derived) Linux and using GNU tar 1.26, but other
than that the environments in questions and the errors reported are
different between the two threads....
