Hi, I found this little mistake on the following example, shown on this page of the manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_section/tar_15.html#SEC23 $ tar cfv archive /etc/mail tar: Removing leading `/' from member names /etc/mail/ /etc/mail/sendmail.cf /etc/mail/aliases $ tar tf archive etc/mail/ etc/mail/sendmail.cf etc/mail/aliasesIn the first line, the options 'f' and 'v' are inverted, which would cause the creation of a 'v.tar' archive. Then, the following list command would have lead to a different result. That's all folks. Many thanks, for your efforts and great job, Piero. P.S.: If you say that the mistake was done on purpouse to see if I was payng the right attention... I WOUN'T BELIEVE IT! :-) :-) |
