Subject: bug#3410: tar mode fails to open many valid files
Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 17:05:14 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200905281705.14463.p.pogonyshev@anakreon.net> (raw)
When I open a 'tar.gz' file in Emacs, it quite often fails with a
message similar to:
File mode specification error: (error
"ntWorkbookBuilder.SheetRecordCollectingListener.html\"
title=\"class in org.apache.poi.hssf.eventuserm has size
-137265917 - corrupted")
E.g. file at
http://apache.promotionalpro.com/poi/dev/bin/poi-bin-3.5-beta5-20090219.tar.gz
exhibits this error. It can be extracted without problems with 'tar
-xzf ...' at command line, so it must be a bug in Emacs' tar mode.
Maybe it is too strict or doesn't handle some extension properly.
Paul
