In gnu tar-1.11.1, when I issue: tar cv something* I get blank lines for each file that is archived. Further investigation reveals that the variable current_file_name is not initialized on the create path; this is what print_header uses. The fix I applied was to an assignment before calling current_file_name = header->header.arch_name; *** create.c Thu Dec 24 19:56:04 1992 --- create.c~ Tue Sep 8 15:53:02 1992 *************** *** 1273,1283 **** head = header; /* hstat is already set up */ head_standard = f_standard; - /* rocky@watson.ibm.com: - At this point, curr_file_name has not been initialized. - Initialize it. - */ - current_file_name = header->header.arch_name; print_header(); } --- 1273,1278 ----
