tags 42158 +upstream severity 42158 important thanks I'm in the process of packaging upstream head of CVS for pax, and spent some time looking at this bug. I haven't found the root cause yet, but it appears to be an upstream problem and not unique to Debian.
I'm going to lower the severity on this to 'important', because while I agree with the assessment that there is possible data loss when restoring files with pax that were written with some cpio versions, this does not render the package unusable, and I don't think we want to exclude it from the lenny release.
