| oldgnu-unknown-mode-bits.patch | Do not encode unknown mode bits with oldgnu format. The oldgnu format can encode large header fields in base-256. On the Hurd, for example, a fifo is a translator and its mode bits contain at least the S_IROOT (040000000) bit set. For the v7 and ustar formats all unknown mode bits are masked at the call site, and ustar, posix and gnu formats only encode known mode bits. But oldgnu is left unmasked and encoding all unknown bits, which is very unexpected as these are system-specific internal details on how to represent fifos (or other translators). . GNU tar should consider oldgnu in the same way as the gnu, posix and ustar formats, and ignore unknown bits when encoding the mode. |

| proper_it_translation.patch | Proper translation for cowardly Cowardly was inconrrectly translated, depriving the Italian message of the funny tone that the original has. . This fixes it by properly translating cowardly, without paraphrasing it into "total refusal". . =================================================================== |
