SEE ALSO tar(5)But this manpage (and file) don't exist in this or in other packages.
This manpage is shipped by libarchive-dev: $ dpkg -L libarchive-dev | grep -F tar.5. /usr/share/man/man5/tar.5.gzI recommend adding libarchive-dev to Suggest and the following text (shamelessly stolen from #662718) to the package description:
The man page describing the tar(5) archive format can be found in the libarchive-dev package. -- Jakub Wilk
