From 6ff45b4e359dda3461826bd092bd8b1be2e7d572 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Coleman Kane Date: Wed, 10 May 2006 20:32:57 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix the wording about the blocksize (-b) parameter. The existing wording makes it look like pax archives > 32256 bytes are not POSIX-compliant! Correct this to state that pax archives with block sizes > 32256 are not POSIX compliant...and settle our fears.
