Remove PaxHeaders from distributed package

[ayashjorden]

Hi @n1tr0g ,
I'm having an issue similar to this.

Can you please re-package and update the Forge?

Thank you,
Yarden

[dgolja]

hey tnx ... Interesting whenever I package the module I use puppet module command, but maybe was an older version. I will re-package it with the next release. tnx

[ayashjorden]

Awesome! 👍

@n1tr0g Can you do a 0.0.z point release to fix this? It's filling logs pretty quickly. Thanks!

[dgolja]

sure ... will do it tonight ...

[dgolja]

done version 1.2.2 released

[rnelson0]

@n1tr0g Hrm, this still shows up with 1.2.2. I'm not sure what command you're using and what version of tar you have, but the problem persists. Perhaps a tar with different flags than puppet expects?

Hmmm than this must be a bug in tar. I am using OS X with puppet. My versions

$ puppet --version
4.2.0

$ tar --version
bsdtar 2.8.3 - libarchive 2.8.3

$ sw_vers -productVersion
10.10.5

Does this happen also on my other modules like influxdb ?

[rnelson0]

Are you tarring up the file yourself, using puppet module build, or something else? Do you have gnu tar available or just bsd tar?

[dgolja]

I use puppet module build so it uses the default tar provided by OS X 10.10.5 which is bsdtar 2.8.3 - libarchive 2.8.3.

For the immediate I will repack the module on a Ubuntu server, but I am definitely interested in the root cause of this issue.

[rnelson0]

@n1tr0g It looks like it just depends on the tar used to package it whether or not PaxHeaders are included. On the receiving side, I see it because I use r10k and it uses minitar to unpack the archives. See puppetlabs/r10k#558, feature request to have minitar ignore the headers instead of alerting.

[dgolja]

ok repacked on ubuntu and tested it via r10k. The PaxHeaders warning are gone. tnx again for the patience.
