Description

Step to reproduce:

  1. Press "Enter" on the .ipk file (OpenWRT package)
  2. Select any text file in list
  3. Press "F3" to view

You still have a window with the warning: "tar: This does not look like a tar archive" and "tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error".

But built-in viewer displays a text file with no errors:
1) if rename foo.ipk file to foo.tar.gz
or
2) if on phase 3. press "Shift-F3" (instead "F3")

Of course. On my working system openSUSE 12.2 (not live) - mc-4.8.6. Вehavior is similar to test system (Live GNOME openSUSE 12.2, mc-4.8.1.3).

Ubuntu 12.10 Live, mc-4.8.3 - another system in which the error is reproducible.

dvlom, compare your /etc/mc/mc.ext and ~/.config/mc/mc.ext in ipk-related part.

test.tar.gz renamed to test.ipk

Please test attached test.ipk. Enter into test.ipk file, then try to open any file with built-in viewer (press "F3"). I hope, that this time you will see an error ;)

I believe the program is trying to view all the files inside the .ipk-archive as .tar.gz-archives, and therefore there is a specified error ("tar: This does not look like a tar archive" and "tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error").

no problem with test.ipk
in in panel "test.ipk/utar://test"

are you tried latest version?

Hi.
Yes, in panel "test.ipk/utar://test". mc version is 4.8.6 (and 4.8.1.3 on live openSUSE 12.2, and 4.8.3 on Ubintu 12.10 in VBox).
Are any options in the .spec file may solve the problem?
Or, is it may be the case in the operating system version?

Replying to angel_il:

mc doesn't use external tar.

you right, but "tar: This does not look like a tar archive" and "tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error" this 'tar' utility messages, not mc...
