Tar --remove-files relied on canonicalize_file_name,
which replaces symlinks in file name components with
the directories they point to. Due to this, tar
effectively ignored existence of symbolic links and
was unable to remove a directory that contained any
(Alexander Kozlov <akozlov@nada.kth.se>, 2010-03-15).
* gnulib.modules: Remove canonicalize.
* src/misc.c (normalize_filename): Rewrite
from scratch. The function operates only on
its input string, it makes no attempt to test
components for existence or to resolve symbolic
links.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add remfiles03.at.
* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
* tests/remfiles03.at: New test case.
* NEWS: Update.

the section.
* NEWS: Update
* src/buffer.c (open_archive): Check volume label on
ACCESS_UPDATE as well.
* src/list.c (test_archive_label): Rewrite to match the
documentation.
* src/names.c (regex_usage_warning): Return int.
(names_notfound): Rewrite the conditional.

* tests/Makefile.am: Add new testcases.
* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
Both bugs reported by Kamil Dudka.
* src/create.c (check_exclusion_tags): Do not keep
pointer to a location within tagname: it may change
after xrealloc. Use byte offset instead.
(dump_file0): Close fd before returning without
dumping the directory.
* src/buffer.c (seek_archive): Rewrite size computation
to prevent it from reaching negative values. Based on
report by Denis Excoffier <Denis.Excoffier@free.fr>.
* src/system.c (stat_to_env): Pass information about the current
volume in variables TAR_ARCHIVE, TAR_VOLUME, TAR_BLOCKING_FACTOR,

* src/list.c (read_header): Change type of the 3rd argument.
All callers updated.

extended/ustar header boundary. This is against POSIX specs, but
we must be able to read such archives anyway.

* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
* src/compare.c: Update calls to read_header.

(main): Handle TEST_LABEL_SUBCOMMAND.
* src/buffer.c (match_volume_label): Call set_volume_label.

accumulated in xhdr->stk even if keyword_global_override_list
is empty.
(xheader_read): On unexpected EOF, report error instead of
coredumping.
(XHDR_PROTECTED, XHDR_GLOBAL): New defines.
(struct xhdr_tab): Remove `protected' with `flags'. All uses updated.
(decg): If XHDR_GLOBAL bit is set, call the keyword's decode
method instead of adding it to `kwl'.
* src/compare.c: Update calls to read_header.
* src/create.c: Likewise.
* src/delete.c: Likewise.
* src/update.c: Likewise.
* src/extract.c: Likewise.
(extract_volhdr): Do not print "Reading <label>" statement, because
it is inconsistent: it is not printed if the volume begins with a
member continued from the previous volume.
* tests/label01.at: New testcase.
* tests/label02.at: New testcase.
* tests/Makefile.am, tests/testsuite.at: Add new testcases.

(namebuf_create, namebuf_free)
(namebuf_name): New prototypes.
(remname): New prototype.
* src/misc.c (struct namebuf): New structure.
(namebuf_create, namebuf_free)

*_PROGRAM constants.
(format_default_settings): Use xasprintf.
(parse_opt): Use *_PROGRAM defines instead of hardcoded
program names.
This adds --with-gzip, --with-bzip2 etc. switches to the configure, so that
one can do, e.g. ./configure --with-bzip2=lbzip2 and have lbzip2 executed
whenever user calls `tar --bzip2'.
* acinclude.m4: New file.
* configure.ac: Add TAR_COMPR_PROGRAM invocations for
the supported compressors.
* src/buffer.c (magic): Use *_COMPRESSOR defines instead
of hardcoded program names.
* src/suffix.c (compression_suffixes): Likewise.
* src/tar.c (struct textual_date): ts is a copy of the structure,
not a pointer to it. Date is a copy as well, hence the `const' is
taken away.
(get_date_or_file): Return 0/1 depending on success/failure.
Copy timestamp to the `ts' member. Store a copy of the string
in `date'.

(xheader_write): Override `t' argument if a corresponding
exthdr.mtime or globexthdr.mtime option is set.

This makes two pax archives binary equivalent if they
have the same contents and care is taken to make extended
headers otherwise reproducible, e.g. by using:
--pax-option=exthdr.name=%d/PaxHeaders/%f,atime:=0
Proposed by Michael D. Adams <mdmkolbe@gmail.com>.
* src/common.h (start_private_header): Take time_t as 3rd param.
(xheader_write): Likewise.
* src/create.c (start_private_header): Take time_t as 3rd param.
All callers updated.

Use current time stamp as mtime for global headers.
(xheader_write): Take time_t as 3rd param.
Make sure the files are deleted only if they were succesfully stored
to the archive.

instead of setting program_name directly.

instead of setting program_name directly.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add remfiles01.at
and remfiles02.at.
