>Description:
pax, either as pax or as tar, fails on quagga-0.98.2.tar.gz, as
found on the distribution site for Quagga.
It happens in all versions of pax I could test: 1.6, 2.0 and
-current.
It seems it fails on the last file, redhat/quagga.spec.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ ftp http://www.quagga.net/download/quagga-0.98.2.tar.gz
$ pax -zf quagga-0.98.2.tar.gz
>Fix:
Unknown. Haven't taken time to analyze the issue yet.
