Hmmm. Good guess but ... I'm using both WinZip and GNU gzip/tar for DOS. See:

The GNU files I have are datestamped 1994 but it's only recently that they seem to be struggling. And all problems are only in this Archive::* context. When run by themselves (tar, gzip) everything is fine. I'd better upgrade Compress::ZLib now too.

Anyway, WinZip and GNU agree that the files have no paths, so if you can see paths and I can't there is definitely a problem and it's definitely somewhere!


I've traced through M::B and A::Tar; the path information is definately being written to the tar file, but there must be some disagreement between these programs on the tar file spec. What happens if you run:

ptar xvzf file.tar.gz
