With a +plain tar you'll have to use constructions like bzcat file.tar.bz|tar +xv or tar --use-compress-prog=bunzip2 -xvf file.tar.bz2 to use bzip2 and +bunzip2 with tar. This patch gives you the -y option so you can unpack a +Bzip2 archive with tar xvfy file.tar.bz2. Applying this patch will be +mentioned later on when you re-install the Tar package. +</para> + +</sect2> + |
