Description Hossein 2022-03-06 12:27:56 UTC 
Description:
When building LibreOffice using LODE, build fails when specific bsdtar.exe is in PATH that for some reason can not handle the tar.xz files

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Anaconda, make sure that bsdtar.exe is in the Cygwin PATH
2. Configure LibreOffice build (./autogen.sh)
3. Try building LibreOffice (make)

Actual Results:
Build error: (provided by Vansh)

[build UPK] boost_1_78_0.tar.xz
[build UPK] dragonbox-1.1.0.tar.gz
[build UPK] dtoa-20180411.tgz
[build UPK] zlib-1.2.11.tar.xz
bsdtar.exe: Error opening archive: Failed to open '/cygdrive/d/lode/ext_tar/dtoa-20180411.tgz'
bsdtar.exe: Error opening archive: Failed to open '/cygdrive/d/lode/ext_tar/zlib-1.2.11.tar.xz'

bsdtar.exe: Error opening archive: Failed to open '/cygdrive/d/lode/ext_tar/boost_1_78_0.tar.xz'

LODE resides on the D:
Cygwin is in C:

autogen.input:
--with-visual-studio=2022
--enable-dbgutil
--without-java

Expected Results:
The build should pass, and the $GNUTAR utility should be a able to extract the tar.xz files.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
