Regression: mc can't open some .tar files

Description (last modified by styx) (diff)

Ironically, I see it when I try to open a tarfile of mc's own git tree. I create the tarball with:

tar cvf mc.tar --exclude '*/.git' mc

and when I press [enter] on mc.tar, it shows me empty list of files.

I will attach a smaller one, with most files deleted. It opens in 4.6.1 just fine.

  • Version 4.6.2 deleted

The bug is in get_compression_type() function. MC interprets the attached tar archive as LZMA-compressed file.

The first byte of file is 'm', and the following condition (src/util.c:888)

    if (magic[0] < 0xE1 || (magic[0] == 0xFF && magic[1] == 'L' &&
        magic[2] == 'Z' && magic[3] == 'M')) {

is true. That's wrong.

Aha, and you didn't believe me and blamed the tar & zip utilities. Glad we've got it fixed!
