[php-maint] Bug#680251: php-pear: Generates incorrect .tar.gz archives

[Olivier Berger]

Package: php-pear
Version: 5.4.4-2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

pear package produces invalid .tar.gz :

$ LANG=C tar ztvf RDF_Graphite-0.1.6.tgz 
-rw-r--r-- olivier/olivier 4496 2012-07-04 18:07 package.xml
tar: A lone zero block at 11

This very much looks like http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=19289 as its patch works (http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=19289&edit=12&patch=pear-archive-tar-19289.diff.txt&revision=1330000541)

Thanks in advance.
