Thank you for your review. I commited the patch as r80824 (I fixed the documentation, :versionadded => :versionchanged), blocked as r80825 (3.2). -- > Unfortunately, POSIX says nothing about how to store bad filenames in > a pax archive. tarfile raises an error. GNU tar fails silently, > it just puts the unchanged original filename into the pax header > without converting it to utf-8, thus violating the standard. Right. I opened a new issue about that: #8333. I consider that it's a different problem.
