Hi everyone,

I found a problem in tar 1.14 (Debian Sarge) which I could reproduce
with 1.15.1 (Debian SID). But it does not happen with tar 1.13.25 (Mac
OS X 10.3.9)

I create a tar with

        tar cf test.tar tar-test

the archiv contains:

        address@hidden:~$ tar tf test.tar
        tar-test/
        tar-test/datei1
        tar-test/datei2

When I update this archiv with

        tar uf test.tar tar-test

the archiv contains

        address@hidden:~$ tar tf test.tar
        tar-test/
        tar-test/datei1
        tar-test/datei2
        tar-test/

Why is the directory added an other time?

by, Martin

PS: please CC: because I'm off list
