Summary | 0000278: /opt/csw/bin/tar syntax incompatible with /usr/bin/tar | ||||||
Description |
/opt/csw/bin/tar is a symlink to /opt/csw/bin/star If user\'s path has /opt/csw/bin before /usr/bin, commands/scripts that use the syntax \"tar -[xct]...\" break with \"Bad Option\" error message. Sun\'s tar and gnu tar have always allow the dash \'-\' in the tar command, even if the standard syntax is without the dash as described in the man pages (\"tar tf filename\" instead of \"tar -tf filename\") |
||||||
Steps To Reproduce | |||||||
Additional Information |
Suggested to remove the tar -> star symlink for compatibility. |
