bug#25458: 25.1; tar mode does not handle compressed archives without sp


From: Francesco Potortì
Subject: bug#25458: 25.1; tar mode does not handle compressed archives without specific extensions
Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2017 16:20:25 +0100

While tar handles compressed archives without regard to their file name,
Emacs cannot handle a compressed tar archive unless its file name
suggests the compression type.  To reproduce:

$ tar -Jcf test.tar any.file.name       # create a compressed tar file
$ tar -tvf test.tar                     # verify that tar can read it
$ cp test.tar test.tar.xz               # create a copy

If you find the files test.tar and test.tar.gz from Emacs, it will
recognise the contents of the second file, but not those of the first.

By looking at the comments on top of tar-mode.el, I get that it does not
rely on tar to get the archive listing, but reads the archive itself, so
correcting this problem does not appear straightforward to me...
