1.13.25 stable?
by David Starks-Browning - Feb 8th 2003 08:20:19
Freshmeat shows the date 15-Dec-2002 for 1.13.25, but the last Changelog
entry is 26-Sep-2001. Almost 1.5 years with no changes! Can 1.13.25 be
considered "stable" and released as 1.14?

1.13.25 still has known bugs that should be
fixed before somebody will make a 1.14.
In order to create a 1.14 you would need a
maintainer who works on GNU tar and who is accepted by RMS.
If you are looking for a mature tar implementation
that is actively maintained you should have a look
at star.

1.13.x at alpha.gnu.org
by Tim - Aug 13th 1999 00:01:17
You need to go to the alpha.gnu.org to get the 1.13.x versions. Only the
release versions are on ftp.gnu.org. For those of us who are not entirely
familiar with the GNU fondations ways.

Bzip2 option removed
by Chris Pimlott - Jul 13th 1999 07:28:53
This is odd, looking through the Changlog I see they added an option to
unbzip2 files after 1.12 but then took it out before release... any know
why?

This reply is way overdue, but ignore my original comment. bzip2 support
was indeed taken out briefly but was put back shortly afterwards and has
been a stardard part of tar even since.

If this is true how come it is not mentioned anywhere in the manual on the
GNU page? The only way I can see to get this support in is by applying a
patch to the code.

~> tar --version | head -n1
tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25
~> tar --help | grep "\-j"
-j, --bzip2 filter the archive through bzip2
Seems to me like it's there.... No need for any patch of any kind.
