Bug#749319: Root cause seems to be tar
I'm experiencing this problem on opensuse with 13.1 when it didn't happen in 12.1
The problem for me appears to be when pristine-tar rebuilds the recreatetarball eg:
pristine-tar: tar cf /tmp/pristine-tar.wsZp1jHqd3/recreatetarball --owner 0
--group 0 --numeric-owner -C /tmp/pristine-tar.wsZp1jHqd3/workdir --no-recursion
--mode 0644 --files-from /tmp/pristine-tar.wsZp1jHqd3/manifest
This file is a different size to the original and it must be the same size/checksum.
On suse I suspect:
Fri Apr 20 15:38:17 UTC 2012 - crrodriguez@opensuse.org
- Switch to default archive type to POSIX.1-2001, which is ten years
old and has no limits on filesize,filename length etc.
The debian changelog mentions pristine-tar a number of times:
