Hello, GNU-tar maintainers, in the manual <http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/absolute.html#SEC113>, the solution to avoid absolute member names,
$ (cd / && tar -c -f archive.tar home) is buggy: The archive will be written to the directory "/", which is not necessarily the case with $ tar -c -f archive.tar /home . As the solution $ tar -c -f archive.tar -C / home (which is already in the manual) is correct, there is no need to use the former one. Could it please be deleted? Thanks in advance, Helmut -- Wer mir E-Mail schreiben will, stelle | When writing me e-mail, please bitte vor meine E-Mail-Adresse meinen | precede my e-mail address with Vor- und Nachnamen, etwa so: | my full name, like Helmut Waitzmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, (Helmut Waitzmann) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
