Changelog

tar (1.23-2ubuntu1) maverick-proposed; urgency=low

  * src/create.c, src/common.h, src/tar.c: Revert patch introduced in 2004
    to fix a dpkg bug long since worked around. The patch caused Debian's
    tar to produce archives with longname headers for files with names
    longer than 99 characters, instead of 100 per POSIX. Also backport a
    hack to re-enable this broken behaviour when the TAR_LONGLINK_100
    environment variable is set. Without these changes, pristine-tar (at
    least) can produce broken tarballs when tarballs committed on systems
    with tar >= 1.23-4 are recreated on systems with tar < 1.23-4 and
    pristine-tar < 1.11. References: Debian bug #598345, #603231,
    #602907. LP: #696480.
