- "cpio -i -t" should list the contents of a file, not extract it.
- Don't extract a file when only option "-d" is given.
Patch supplied by Paul Ripke in PR bin/26513.
an extract. With -h this will cause existing absolute symlinks to be treated
as relative to the current directory.
Helps sysinst handle existing symlinks in the target system.
Remove 'L' from the usage (got spilt into 'h' and 'H' many moons ago)
Add 'S' to usage, and put into correct place in options list.
we can append to it. Modify the code so that file_write is re-entrant,
even in the gnu long name/link hack.
The old code assumed that the buffer already contained the necessary
blocks to satisfy the read file request that contained the long
filename. This is not always the case, specially when we are dealing
with pipes which do shorter reads, thus having more probability
that a long file name will fall across a buffer boundary.
To reproduce, create a tar archive with a lot of gnu-long-names
(pkgsrc/devel/libsigc++2 is a good example), do a tar -tf to get
a list of filenames, compress it and do a tar -tzf to get another
list of the filenames. Notice that the two lists differ.
_NETBSD_SOURCE as this makes cross building from older/newer versions of
NetBSD harder, not easier (and also makes the resulting tools 'different')
Wrap all required code with the inclusion of nbtool_config.h, attempt to
only use POSIX code in all places (or when reasonable test w. configure and
provide definitions: ala u_int, etc).

As mentioned in the previous commit, the switch statement in the longlink()
needed simplification and it was a bit incorrect. Only depend on the passed
type to determine what kind of gnu longlink to produce. Don't try to deduce
it from the archive file type.
- always put the @LongLink tag on the name, not the long-link name.
- pass in what type of long name record we want to create; one for long-name
or long-link name.
XXX: We should get rid of the switch too.
The problem is with the program that generates the tar file:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 0 Feb 8 16:46 faad2/aacDECdrop/
It creates directory nodes without the 'd' bit set, so that pax thinks
they are files and does the temporary name and dance with them. Added
code to detect this condition, warn about it, and work around it.
because alternation (|) isn't available in "pax -s" RE's, we have to pass
four (yes 4!) different patterns:
.*\/<pattern>$
.*\/<pattern>\/.*
^<pattern>$
^<pattern>\/.*
instead of the more elegant
(^|.*\/)<pattern>($|\/.*)
