Update gtar packages to 1.14:
XXX: man page not updated (didn't find new version of suse
gtar man page which we're using in the package)
version 1.14 - Sergey Poznyakoff, 2004-05-11
* Added support for POSIX.1-2001 and ustar archive formats.
* New option --format allows to select the output archive format
* The default output format can be selected at configuration time
by presetting the environment variable DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_FORMAT.
Allowed values are GNU, V7, OLDGNU and POSIX.
* New option --strip-path allows to cut off a given number of
path elements from the name of the file being extracted.
* New options --index-file, --no-overwrite-dir. The --overwrite-dir
option is now the default; use --no-overwrite-dir if you prefer
the previous default behavior.
* The semantics of -o option is changed. When extracting, it
does the same as --no-same-owner GNU tar option. This is compatible
with UNIX98 tar. Otherwise, its effect is the same as that of
--old-archive option. This latter is deprecated and will be removed
in future.
* New option --check-links prints a message if not all links are dumped
for a file being archived. This corresponds to the UNIX98 -l option.
The current semantics of the -l option is retained for compatibility
with previous releases, however such usage is strongly deprecated as
the option will change to its UNIX98 semantics in the future releases.
* New option --occurrence[=N] can be used in conjunction with one of
the subcommands --delete, --diff, --extract or --list when a list of
files is given either on the command line or via -T option. This
option instructs tar to process only the Nth occurrence of each named
file. N defaults to 1, so `tar -x -f archive --occurrence filename'
extracts the first occurrence of `filename' from `archive'
and terminates without scanning to the end of the archive.
* New option --pax-option allows to control the handling of POSIX
keywords in `pax' extended headers. It is equivalent to `pax'
-o option.
* --incremental and --listed-incremental options work correctly on
individual files, as well as on directories.
* New scripts: backup (replaces old level-0 and level-1) and restore.
The scripts are compiled and installed if --enable-backup-scripts
option is given to configure.
* By default tar searches "rmt" utility in "$prefix/libexec/rmt",
which is consistent with the location where the version of "rmt"
included in the package is installed. Previous versions of tar
used "/etc/rmt". To install "rmt" to its traditional location,
run configure with option --libexecdir=/etc. Otherwise, if you
already have rmt installed and wish to use it, instead of the
shipped in version, set the variable DEFAULT_RMT_COMMAND to
the full path name of the utility, e.g. ./configure
DEFAULT_RMT_COMMAND=/etc/rmt.
Notice also that the full path name of the "rmt" utility to
use can be set at runtime, by giving option --rmt-command to
tar.
* Removed obsolete command line options:
** --absolute-paths superseded by --absolute-names
** --block-compress is not needed any longer
** --block-size superseded by --blocking-factor
** --modification-time superseded by --touch
** --read-full-blocks superseded by --read-full-records
** --record-number superseded by --block-number
** --version-control superseded by --backup
* New message translations fi (Finnish), gl (Galician), hr (Croatian),
hu (Hungarian), ms (Malaysian), nb (Norwegian), ro (Romanian), sk
(Slovak), zh_CN (Chinese simplified), zh_TW (Chinese traditional).
The code 'no' for Norwegian (Bokmål) has been withdrawn; use 'nb' instead.
