See #68047, #67905. Contact the developers of the affected software to issue fixed tarballs.

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

To be put into Portfile?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Yes but I'm not delighted about the prospect of putting that incantation into every affected port in a platform darwin 8 block. Granted, that kind of is what I suggested in comment:ticket:61276:11 but it would be nice if base could extract these distfiles properly since they're apparently common now. Josh pointed out elsewhere that Tcllib has a way to read/write tar files that might not be susceptible to this problem. Rewriting the extract phase to use Tcllib instead of gnu or bsd tar might be an option, and might be a step toward a fix for other issues like #50969 and #61276 — although in #61276 we did discover that the software producing the tarballs was faulty and that software has since been fixed. And if these distfiles you're encountering with malformed pax extended attributes are also faulty, then the ideal solution here would also be to fix the software that produced the files.

platform darwin 8

I moved testing to darwin 17, macOS High Sierra, version 10.13.6. Here I encountered the two failures.

Less "faulty" and more "only targeting unarchivers that correctly handle pax extended timestamps".

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

Perl's Module-Find-0.16.tar.gz from p5-module-find has the same problem. Found on macOS High Sierra, Version 10.13.6.

ptar from installed Perl is another option that works. Even Apple's /usr/bin/ptar 5.18.2 does so.

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

Still port 2.10.2.
