I have a theme in xfce on my laptop that doesn't exist on my desktop.
I'm trying to copy the theme from the laptop to the desktop. I
compressed the directory Numix, used sftp to copy the .tar.gz file,
and am trying to extract the directory. I get this error message:
tar: Numix/gtk-3.0/assets: Cannot open: File exists
tar: Numix/gtk-3.20/assets: Cannot open: File exists
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
What's going on here?
I suspect these are directories and for some reason due
to the way you wrote the tar creation command you ended
up putting 2 copies of these directories in the tar file.
To create the tar file I used the GUI. I right-clicked on the directory
Numix and clicked on "Create Archive..." I don't know how it did it.
You can check this with:
tar tvf <filename> | grep Numix/gtk- | grep assets
You probably get 2 lines for each of the above files.
That produces a long list of files, but none of them seem to be exact
duplicates. The closest are:
lrwxrwxrwx rsteff/rsteff 0 2019-04-03 09:32 Numix/gtk-3.0/assets ->
../assets
lrwxrwxrwx rsteff/rsteff 0 2019-04-03 09:32 Numix/gtk-3.20/assets
-> ../assets
This is a weird thing that doesn't seem to have prevented what I needed
done, so If I don't find an answer I won't be too bummed.
Thanks for your ideas.
