Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tar

Created an archive on Ubuntu Dapper (tar -cf blah.tar <1.2GB_of_files>)

One a Ubuntu Edgy system, tar -xvkf blah.r failed at the 4th item in the
archive with complaints about corruption.

rm'ing the files that -k should have preserved and running tar -xvf
blah.tar allowed the archive to uncompress - none of the files were
corrupted.

** Affects: tar (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
