tar bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated tar packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.
Description
The GNU tar program can save multiple files in one archive and restore the files
from that archive.
This update fixes the following bug:
- If tar was run with the "--remove-files" option and the archived directory
contained a file and a symbolic link pointing to the file, the file was deleted
but not backed up. In addition, the archiving process terminated with an error.
With this update, the file is archived as expected in this scenario.
(BZ#1030175)
Users of tar are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
