The following reply was made to PR bin/74801; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Nate Eldredge <nge@cs.hmc.edu> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, tte@fau.de Cc: Subject: Re: bin/74801: cpio -p --sparse creates truncated files Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2005 15:09:23 -0700 (PDT) This appears to have been fixed in CURRENT with the merge of GNU cpio 2.6. I can't reproduce it there, but I can on 5.4-RELEASE-p7. I posted a copy of the file in question at http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~nate/sparse-testcase.bin . It appears to depend on the specific file, since a simple testcase made with echo and truncate didn't trigger the bug. -- Nate Eldredge nge@cs.hmc.edu
