-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 After upgrading to 6-CURRENT from November 10, I found bsdtar cannot archive files with setuid bits anymore. When creating my archive, I see this: a bin/kenv a bin/kill a bin/ln a bin/link a bin/ls a bin/mkdir a bin/mv a bin/pax a bin/ps a bin/pwd a bin/rcp: (null) Then the archive stops dead (exit value is 1). The same problem occurs for all setuid files. bsdtar from October 14 is fine. I am trying to create the archive as root. This problem can be reproduced by: # cd /tmp # tar cvf xxx.tar /bin/rcp Joe - -- Joe Marcus Clarke FreeBSD GNOME Team :: gnome@FreeBSD.org FreeNode / #freebsd-gnome http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFBk8nlb2iPiv4Uz4cRAqgMAJ9erbkZIo3LckKRsKsM21G0gzWuJQCfX61y rMyo/jdX8PLQpO5Ro9AQ1tE= =Qivi -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
