>Description:
The distfile required by textproc/crimson fails to extract with pax.
It works properly with GNU tar.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/textproc/crimson
make fetch
( use pax to extract the fetched file ) -> fails
( now try with gtar ) -> succeeds
>Fix:
Probably we need to fix pax to manage this file... but really, no idea.
