Public bug reported: I really don't want to crab here, but I found a change in tar (edgy) against tar (dapper) which breaks my backup-scripts.
The problem is: tar -tzv shows no seconds any more: tar -tzvf MICROSTAR_070129_HOME-KURT.tgz|head drwxr-x--- kurt/kurt 0 2007-01-29 14:55 ./ drwx------ kurt/kurt 0 2006-06-11 12:25 ./.AbiSuite/ -rw-rw---- kurt/kurt 13489 2006-08-21 16:09 ./.AbiSuite/AbiWord.Profile -rw-rw---- kurt/kurt 64 2006-06-11 12:25 ./.AbiSuite/coquille.conf lrwxrwxrwx kurt/kurt 0 2007-01-28 14:43 ./.DCOPserver_Microstar_:0 -> /home/kurt/.DCOPserver_Microstar__0 -rw-r--r-- kurt/kurt 58 2007-01-28 14:43 ./.DCOPserver_Microstar__0 -rw------- kurt/kurt 29129 2007-01-28 14:43 ./.ICEauthority drwx------ kurt/kurt 0 2006-08-14 00:46 ./.Trash/ -rw------- kurt/kurt 120 2007-01-28 14:42 ./.Xauthority -rw-rw---- kurt/kurt 51 2006-12-26 14:05 ./.Xmodmap This are the results for tar from dapper: sudo apt-get install tar/dapper tar -tzvf MICROSTAR_070129_HOME-KURT.tgz|head drwxr-x--- kurt/kurt 0 2007-01-29 14:55:13 ./ drwx------ kurt/kurt 0 2006-06-11 12:25:24 ./.AbiSuite/ -rw-rw---- kurt/kurt 13489 2006-08-21 16:09:03 ./.AbiSuite/AbiWord.Profile -rw-rw---- kurt/kurt 64 2006-06-11 12:25:24 ./.AbiSuite/coquille.conf lrwxrwxrwx kurt/kurt 0 2007-01-28 14:43:01 ./.DCOPserver_Microstar_:0 -> /home/kurt/.DCOPserver_Microstar__0 -rw-r--r-- kurt/kurt 58 2007-01-28 14:43:01 ./.DCOPserver_Microstar__0 -rw------- kurt/kurt 29129 2007-01-28 14:43:01 ./.ICEauthority drwx------ kurt/kurt 0 2006-08-14 00:46:16 ./.Trash/ -rw------- kurt/kurt 120 2007-01-28 14:42:58 ./.Xauthority -rw-rw---- kurt/kurt 51 2006-12-26 14:05:30 ./.Xmodmap Maybe I'm wrong, but I think such elementary things as tar shouldn't be changed in their behavior without a real good reason. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- tar (edgy) breaks my backup-scripts https://launchpad.net/bugs/85138 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
