Works if we can do it, but I agree we should add a syntax check to enforce it.
2. bump tar format from ustar, which has limitations on the length of file names, to posix/pax, which has no such limitations.
Might be doable, if RHEL 5 autoconf/automake/tar supports it. Here's where we switched to ustar: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-April/msg01435.html commit 75ad8b67 and even then, we ran into problems with too-long symlinks (which are processed differently than regular files). -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
