[jira] Commented: (MASSEMBLY-75) Unpacked TAR dependencies do not preserve file mode nor uid/gid

["Robert Watkins (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

Robert Watkins commented on MASSEMBLY-75:
-----------------------------------------

This is still an issue with 2.2-beta-1 (bit me not 30 minutes ago).

the only workaround I've got at the moment is to leave the tarballs packed up, and then manually unpack them later (as part of the actual manual installation process).

> "TAR" Assemblies generated from unpacking another TAR do not preserver the extended file information (uid/gid/mod). For example:
> if bar.tar contains an executable file "baz" and
> if our .pom has the following dependency:
>     <dependency>
>       <groupId>foo</groupId>
>       <artifactId>bar</artifactId>
>       <type>tar</type>
>       <scope>compile</scope>
>     </dependency>
> and our assembly.xml has the following:
> <assembly>
>     <id></id>
>     <formats>
>         <format>tar.gz</format>
>     </formats>
> ....
>    <dependencySets>
>         <dependencySet>
>             <scope>compile</scope>
>             <outputDirectory/>
>             <includes>
>                 <include>foo:bar</include>
>             </includes>
>             <unpack>true</unpack>
>         </dependencySet>
> then the generated assembly will contain "baz", but it will no longer be executable.
