[Bug-tar] Bug Report

[Felix Riemann]

Hi,
I think I have encountered a bug in tar (please correct me if I'm wrong):

Using
$ tar xf FILE.tar
where FILE contains colons (in my case, FILE contained the time in
HH:MM:SS) does not seem to work.
My file has in summary been generated through
$ tar folder | bzip2 -c > FILE.tar.bz2)
I actually tried tar xjf FILE.tar.bz2 , but the bzip is not the point,
its tar who has difficulties.

I am using Debian GNU/Linux lenny
$ tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.19
