Description ian 2003-12-23 02:37:57 CET 
xffm hangs when extracting/uncompressing archives.
Comment 1 d_osh 2003-12-24 08:47:09 CET 
This happens when tar requires input from the user, and there is no mechanism
in xffm to give it.
Comment 2 edscott editbugs 2003-12-26 14:51:17 CET 
The 4.1 branch has a mechanism for feedback, but no feedback is considered for
doing a "tar -zxf" (should there be?). Due to the other bugs reported
recently, I suspect a junk pointer somewhere.
Comment 3 edscott editbugs 2003-12-28 17:30:00 CET 
This could be the same problem as in bug #57. Please apply the reverse patch
listed in bugnote #57 and confirm if problem is gone. Thanx.
Comment 4 edscott editbugs 2003-12-29 20:14:43 CET 
Please replace file libs/tubo.c with uploaded file and verify if bug is gone.
Comment 5 ian 2004-01-05 05:55:42 CET 
It works! The bug is gone. Thanks.
