Is your current working directory somewhere under that text mount? It may be a bug in tar's handling of text-mounted files (ideally, tar should be reopening everything binary in spite of text mounts, but I may have missed a spot). >=20 > A similar sequence on a Windows 8.1 machine running tar v1.27.1 does not= =20 > produce this problem.=20 Could be an accidental regression in my cygwin-specific patches between the two versions. But I don't normally use or test on text-mounts, so I'll need confirmation that you are indeed experiencing the problem only in your text mount, before I spend cycles debugging it. --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --W0HDwioN5astjOnjvlIhWt0pWI8or36qX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJW32WhAAoJEKeha0olJ0Nq1DIH/RVivtqZzIW6GyWAxtRx0h33 0cfkjYV1Ufqnq6b4vcCzhRMHPONSeQP7X/dDi0oFgjniTG7WiDR3CJYBbQiiS3zM f2uNSmkSAHC6EmlNtWGtS62c7oLNwtMcS2ha1sKH1LmkurubV+sYKcFJoq1I6UMn Msdj7b9X+pGnO3vQOGiYjvYnXBXKVURRFeJj4LYuf2yrUVGtg1onoJvDnOUyqKgW NU4NqXFDheg0/B/rwjunCZp/NUHcF5Zx5YjnYTGH8pTM2Vj5WNNcbw8JEZbiiTci zaNXvsrm3QZY/wgWPpc8P8JpmODLoiaYlBHORKC3zqiUZvlB5nyYk7tstbAid6I= =YwHt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --W0HDwioN5astjOnjvlIhWt0pWI8or36qX--
