Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAVEN-864
Summary: tar command 'U' option not supported on Solaris OS.
Type: Bug
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Major
Time Spent: Unknown
Remaining: Unknown
Project: maven
Components:
plugin-dist
Fix Fors:
1.1
Versions:
1.0-rc1
Assignee:
Reporter: Martin Lambert
Created: Mon, 29 Sep 2003 6:21 AM
Updated: Wed, 8 Oct 2003 12:14 PM
Environment: Sun Solaris v5.8
Description:
Unlike the site plugin that uses a property to set the tar program used (maven.site.tar.executable), the dist plugin uses the hard coded string 'tar' to run the tar command. This is a problem on Solaris OS where the 'U' option is not supported by the standard tar program.
Below is the snippet of plugin.jelly script in question (dist:deploy goal) -
<deploy:artifact
artifact="distributions.tar.gz"
type="distributions"
assureDirectoryCommand="mkdir -p"
siteCommand="cd @deployDirectory@;gunzip distributions.tar.gz;tar xUvf distributions.tar;chmod -R g+u *;rm distributions.tar"
/>
It would seem appropriate/consistent to replace the hard coded string with a 'maven.dist.tar.executable' to allow a different tar program, i.e. GNU tar, that supports the 'U' to be used. This would default to a value of 'tar' and therefore be transparent in behaviour for most people.
This bug was also present in Beta 10.
Cheers,
Martin.
