You still send your malicious FUD, stop these lies!
Star does not create archives that cannot be read by other tar
implementations unless these tar implementations are definitely defective.
As I mentioned before: The same bug in GNU tar that causes GNU tar to have
problems with some star archives prevents GNU tar to read back archives
created by GNU tar, see GNU tar mailing list.

Again trying to write mail, that includes lies only?
Finally stay away from here with your lies and attemts to reverse other peoples
statements.
star passes all my incremental backup/restore tests from the first time.
GNU tar was not able to pass a simple test.

Are you suffering from Alzheimer?
Your claim is a definite lie and this has been discussed many times before.
It seems that you are unable to have a useful discussion and you only try
to derail discussions.
