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.
