Description Pavel Raiskup 2013-08-05 14:03:06 UTC

I have checked the problem originally reported at [1] and at least on Fedora-19
libarchive it is really broken.

This is worth to fix in Fedora.

  $ touch FILENAME
  $ mkdir extract
  $ setfacl -m root:rwx TESTFILE
  $ getfacl TESTFILE
  # file: TESTFILE
  # owner: praiskup
  # group: praiskup
  user::rw-
  user:root:rwx
  group::rw-
  mask::rwx
  other::r--
  $ bsdtar -cpf test.tar TESTFILE&& bsdtar -xpf test.tar -C extract
  $ getfacl extract/TESTFILE 
  # file: extract/TESTFILE
  # owner: praiskup
  # group: praiskup
  user::rw-
  group::rwx
  other::r--

Comment 1 Jaromír Končický 2013-08-07 11:54:41 UTC

The first thing I found out is that ACL_TYPE_NFS4 is not defined in my system (in my sys/acl.h).
This causes that functions translate_acl() in archive_read_disk_entry_from_file.c:440 and archive_write_disk_set_acls() in archive_write_disk_acl.c:69 are suppressed by #if defined() directive and thus saving and restoring ACLs is not performed.

I am using Fedora 19 3.10.4-300.fc19.x86_64.
