Subject: [PATCH] Make-_untar_bin use Unix-syntax archive names on VMS
Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2011 13:55:07 -0500
To: bug-archive-extract [...] rt.cpan.org
From: "Craig A. Berry" <craigberry [...] mac.com>
The attached patch fixes a test failure on VMS systems that have GNU tar installed. The port of GNU tar in current circulation does not understand archive names in native syntax, only Unix syntax. So the patch converts the name to Unix syntax before passing it to the tar command. Show quoted text
