Hello,
I've discovered that busybox tar -a flag acts differently than both
bsdtar and GNU tar. If the archive ends with extension .txz it creates a
LZMA file rather than xz.
See:
$ bsdtar caf ../MANIFEST.txz *
$ file ../MANIFEST.txz
../MANIFEST.txz: XZ compressed data
$ tar caf ../MANIFEST.txz *
$ file ../MANIFEST.txz
../MANIFEST.txz: XZ compressed data
$ busybox tar caf ../MANIFEST.txz *
$ file ../MANIFEST.txz
../MANIFEST.txz: LZMA compressed data, streamed (<- why?)
Is there a bug in busybox tar -a flag or I miss something?
busybox 1.30.1
GNU tar 1.29
bsdtar 3.2.1 - libarchive 3.2.1 zlib/1.2.8 liblzma/5.2.2 bz2lib/1.0.6
Regards,
