This whole thread is confusing me.
Maybe a command line would help?
Is this correct?
% tar cvf kdefoo-x.y.z.tar <files>
% xz kdefoo-xy.z.tar
=> resulting in kdefoo-x.y.z.tar.xz
if not, please tell us what a command line should be
I take it from mpyne's original posting that:
% tar Jcvf kdefoo-x.y.z.tar.xz <files>
isn't the way to go??
