Subject: bug#66532: 29.1; dired-guess-default command for tar.zst file fails
Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2023 11:54:00 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bkd2315h.fsf@posteo.de> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 4996 bytes --]
I tried to extract the attached zstandard-compressed tar archive
`testdir.tar.zst' using the dired-guess-default suggested shell command,
which is
unzstd -c %i | tar -xf -
It fails with the message
zstd: can't stat %i : No such file or directory -- ignored
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: testdir.tar.zst: Not found in archive
What instead works is using the command
tar --use-compress-program=unzstd -xvf
My GNU tar version also is able to automatically detect zstandard files,
so basically just "tar -xvf" is suffisient, but the version with
"--use-compress-program=unzstd" is backwards-compatible to older tar
versions.
I suggest fixing that in `dired-guess-shell-alist-default'. Though there
might be tar versions out there which don't support
`--use-compress-program' (I don't know), then maybe a piping solution
might be better, but that should be done in a way that avoid the above
error (not sure what actually causes it).
I use GNU tar version 1.35 and unzstd version v1.5.5.
