Some tar binaries (like the one from busybox in buildroot) have troubles with "tar -z" parameters. This patch overcomes the problem calling to gzip prior to tar.

Do they work if you don't specify |
No. The "-z" parameter is not supported by busybox's "tar". Futhermore, some other UNIX tar versions doesn't support it. The alternative implemented using the "gzip" tool externally is the most universal way. So I suggest to merge it. Regards. |
Missing verbose parameter in tar
|
Hi, Added the missing "v" (verbose) parameter in the tar command. I suggest to merge it. |
