[gentoo-dev] [PATCH] unpacker.eclass: Don't assume the default tar is stdin

[Arsen Arsenović]

Despite common misconception, the default GNU tar tarfile is not stdin.
On some systems, this can cause tar to fail to extract relevant files.

See '(tar)file tutorial' for a description of how the default is picked.
