Package: tar Version: 1.27.1-1 Followup-For: Bug #593149 Hi,
this bug still exists. Many options have a description which is chopped off, including: --occurrence -k, --keep-old-files --atime-preserve --delay-directory-restore -s, --preserve-order, --same-order --totals and others. This omits important information and renders the manpage pretty useless.
