Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils
Hello! I've got a very strange problem. Symlinks doesn't want to be
archived:
u...@ubuntu:~$ ls -la ./weird/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 user user 0 2009-10-03 12:33 .
drwxr-xr-x 35 user user 8192 2009-10-03 12:33 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user 0 2009-10-03 11:43 .bashrc -> ./.profile
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 697 2009-10-03 11:43 .profile
u...@ubuntu:~$ tar -cf - ./weird/ | tar -tvf -
drwxr-xr-x user/user 0 2009-10-03 12:33 ./weird/
lrwxrwxrwx user/user 0 2009-10-03 11:43 ./weird/.bashrc -> .\251t\b \251t\b<W
-rw-r--r-- user/user 697 2009-10-03 11:43 ./weird/.profile
I don't know what ".\251t\b \251t\b<W" mean.
Steps to reproduce(:
cd /tmp
hg init testrepo
cd ./testrepo
echo "content" > testfile
ln -s testfile ./.testlink
hg add
hg ci -m "commit"
cd ~
hg clone ssh://localhost//tmp/testrepo clonedrepo
tar -cf - ./clonedrepo | tar -tvf -
