Patch 100291-02 did not restore already-compressed file in the compressed form when un'baring. This patch fixes the problem. Bugid: 1048339 18-June-91 Bar gives error message of "No such file or directory." The problem seems to be similiar to bug 1017233. In bar.c, the library call system() is passed the filename along with the command to compress. When system gives this string to the shell, the "#" is used for parameter substition. INSTALL: As Root: -------- mv /bin/bar /bin/bar.fcs cp `arch -k`/bar /bin Make sure the premissions of the new "bar" are as follows: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 163840 Oct 11 1990 /bin/bar*
