In case someone is interested in this bug, what I remember I noticed later, is that `tar` extract a directory, then delete it, then try to add files in the just deleted directory (which turns to be wrong, obviously), then sometime recreate the directory, which ends to be empty.
Someone should care, as `tar` is a core functionality. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357345 Title: tar: untaring with --recursive-unlink ends with an empty directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tar/+bug/1357345/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
