Package: pax
Version: 1:1.5-2
While using pax to restore some files that I had accidently
deleted, I noticed that a file with 4 hard links and size 2424 was
restored with 4 hard links (right) and 0 size (wrong).
The cpio archive was originally created with these options,
cpio -o -0a -Hcrc
using `GNU cpio version 2.4.2'.
I used cpio to restore the same files from the same archive that
pax failed to restore correctly, and the restore using cpio was
successful. A log of both of these restores follows.
