Package: tar
Version: 1.16.1-1
Severity: normal

When unpacking archive where disk space gets filled, the issued warning
looks like:

tar: linux-source-2.6.21/sound/usb/usbmixer.c: Cannot open: No such file or 
directory
tar: linux-source-2.6.21/sound/usb/usbmixer_maps.c: Cannot open: No such file 
or directory

SUGGESTION

- Tar should notice that disk is full and *stop*. 
- Tar should issue correct message. The "no such file..." is misleading
  and causes to think that there is somthing wrong with the archive itself.
