Package: tar
Version: 1.25-2
Severity: important

My backup scripts stopped picking up files, so I had a look.

Simplified, I found that combining --one-file-system and
--listed-incremental now causes it to not find any files.  Removing
either of these makes the command work again.

butterfly:/etc# tar -cvjf /root/etc.tar.bz2 --one-file-system \
    --listed-incremental=/root/catalog .
tar: .: Directory is new
../
butterfly:/etc#
