| Tarring a directory (only a directory, not its contents) with the tar program results in user@host:~$ mkdir tmp user@host:~$ tar --no-recursion -cf sample.tar tmp/ user@host:~$ tar tfv sample.tar drwxr-xr-x user/user 0 2004-09-20 12:55:27 tmp/ Using the Python `tarfile' module, the result is user@host:~$ python ... >>> t = tarfile.open( 'sample.tar', 'w') >>> t.add( 'tmp', recursive = False) ... user@host:~$ tar tfv sample.tar drwxr-xr-x user/user 4096 2004-09-20 12:55:27 tmp/ But there are no 4096 Bytes in the tar file. If this is not actually a bug, I would like to propose it to be one. I may provide a solution to this at <http://www.bertram-scharpf.de/tmp/tarfile.tar.gz> Bertram | ||
